What ever posessed the Church to abandon Latin, alter rails and reverence for the Eucharist? People don't demand it because they have no clue what they are missing. You equate Latin liturgies with "reverence for the Eucharist." Most of us who love the Novus Ordo also have a love for the Eucharist.
As I said, those who love Latin should be granted the celebration of the Novus Ordo or the Tridentine Liturgy in Latin.
In my parish, you'd be lucky to draw 20 people.

In my parish, you'd be lucky to draw twenty peopleMaybe so, but in five years you'd have 200 people. When children are raised in that environment, they will be extraordinarily informed Catholics. They will keep the faith. They will pass it on; the Novus Ordo has been a catastrophe when it comes to keeping souls in a state of grace. Unfortunately, the informality of the Novus Ordo mass begat an informality in the upkeep of one's eternal soul, much to the eternal regret of many a lapsed Catholic.
