Marcos, since I'm primed with wine and ranting; on language. My theory [just made up] is that rather than <i think a person living in the California to Texas belt, even well beyond that, is really missing quality of life without a decently fluent level of spanish>. One would do better to learn the language of the future cash flow. Spanish language GDP = not bad [in that area anyway] American language GDP = huge Mandarin language GDP = growing really fast with 1.3 billion people but really, ideographs with no tense, plural etc = too stone age. Japanese language GDP = huge, but dwindling and only 110 million people. But a well designed language. Maori language GDP = bugger all and going nowhere fast French = giggle, though cafe and restaurant are handy words Russian = had their day; glasnost is a handy word German = they lost the war so have to learn American Latin = school pupil cruelty from the Roman Empire - good riddance. Arabic = stupid squiggles about Islamic Jihad; they can go to hell. Hebrew = get a grip you 'chosen people' and learn American. Hieroglyphs = no GDP but good for reading the Rosetta Stone Africa = game reserve English = pedants paradise but nigga rap is wiping them. Binary 0 1 = gaining ground really fast and nobody can speak the lingo like the computers. 01 will rule the world. I should learn that one [but I'm too old] Mqurice PS: Esperanto = Spanish more or less and not much GDP.
