I certainly hope that is a hit list as I feel you may find it simply just too much to try and study that manay languages all at the same time.
Burnout is you enemy, do not give it the fuel it desires.

I'm curious, what are your reasons for these languages? They seem pretty eclectic. I
guess all our language lists are eclectic to a point, but I get the feeling most people
don't plan their languages out so far in advance.
