And "swahili stuff" is insulting. LOL! Yeah, sure, who is going to feel insulted by that? Black Africans and Europeans I very much doubt it. It's a phrase I use often in speech (to mean anything that's not Anglo) and it has never caused offence. You mean Anglos look down on everybody who is not Anglo ? Given they all want to come here after having allowed their own countries to fall apart, don't expect any concessions from me. Ye shall reap what ye shall, and all that. No wonder 'American' is synomimous with 'monolingual'. Since when? American is merely synonymous with ignorance. -- --- DFM - http://www.deepfriedmars.com --- -- |
