VH> heinau@chemie.fu-berlin.de (Vera Heinau) writes: VH> [Something in German] VH> Oops - sorry for using German in international groups. In the past there have been postings to this newsgroup in foreign languages, accidental or otherwise. This is the first time that a poster has not been promptly chastised for doing so. Is there any particular reason that articles to this newsgroup should be in the English language (except, of course, to maximize the audience)? I cannot see what the problem is and would like to propose a rule of thumb: If you don't understand the Subject:, don't bother reading the article. I will post in Icelandic if I so choose, albeit not holding my breath for feedback. In short, there is no need to apologize for a posting in German, not to me at least. Variety is the spice of life Gisli -- ............................................................................... Gisli Ottarsson Delenda est Carthago.
