Because USENET is a world-wide network, it only makes sense to use
the international standard language: English.  If it's good enough
for the UN, air-traffic control, and international radio communications,
it's good enough for USENET.  At the very least, if you are going to
post in a language other than English, restrict the distribution to
those areas that are likely to know the language.  If you need wider
distribution, use a more common language.
