I completely agree. I always make an effort to make my sentences 
as redundant as possible such that they can be easily read and 
understood by anyone:

Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo.

Unfortunately, I think the Chinese have us beat; they can 
construct redundant sentences far beyond anything we could ever 
imagine, and thus I predict that within 50 years Chinese will be 
the new international language of science, commerce, and politics:

石室诗士施氏,嗜狮,誓食十狮。氏时时适市视狮。十时,适十狮适市。 
是时,适施氏适市。氏视是十狮,恃矢势,使是十狮逝世。氏拾是十狮尸,适石室。石室湿,氏使侍拭石室。石室拭,氏始试食是十狮尸。食时,始识是十狮,实十石狮尸。试释是事。
