You are funny! You do business with Americans in.....spanish!!! lolol....

    Beleive what you want.  It's Usenet.....I'm not overly bothered by what
anyone has to say.  It's easy to be tough behind a keyboard.  But Spanish
has turned out to be a very useful tool for me.  I recommend learning a
second language to many people, I think it's a very great skill to have and
can have great effects on your ability to comprehend concepts and ideas.  As
a (assuming) native French Speaker, don't you think that learning English
has had beneficial effect on your overall life?  More than simply being able
to communicate with others?  Oh and by the way, I may not attend meetings
that are held in Spanish, but being able to carry on a general prolonged
conversation in someone else's mother tounge has always been greatly
appreciated.  And with offices in the Southern US and South America I tend
to use my new found skill on a pretty regular basis.

I do business with French in...arabic!

    Boy, that sounds really arrogant.  An arrogant Frenchman?
Nah.....that's just a stereotype.

As we say in french: une poign�e dans le dos?

    As we say in English:  Really?  That's Nice.
