Subject: french and language nationalists hicks


Hello:

I think English and French, perhaps even Spainish should be the normal
languages on this. Many Americans speak all three. Language nationalist
hicks ought not to forget that this is a 

"postcolonial" 

site -- this sort of means that hicks should learn a few other languages --
at least the languages of the Atlantic European states --remember they did
have something to do with colonialism.

Why make such a big issue out of such a small thing?
