Bilbo said...: I think it's even more telling that the first line is in Spanish. By the time the next census rolls around, the basic letter will probably be in Spanish, and the English version will be about where the Vietnamese is now.; Mar 9, 2010, 7:43:00 AM
Jay said...: I haven't gotten mine yet.

All the other languages don't bother me. Even people who have learned and are fluent in English will still be more comfortable with their native language.; Mar 9, 2010, 9:48:00 AM
Mike said...: B - I'm way to old for that.

B - That's only if we let them keep coming and going. If we keep them they will be assimilated.

J - Assimilation used to take 3 generations. Now it only takes one.; Mar 9, 2010, 10:20:00 AM
Mike said...: I just thought to go to the website and look at the drop down box for languages. 69 total. So Bilbo can go look and see how good they did with the German translation. And I can't remember what other language Amanda speaks. Or Rima who hasn't been heard from in awhile.; Mar 9, 2010, 10:29:00 AM
