ORIGINAL: tjhkkr What actually is scary to me is that there are a great many folks on this board that are not from native English speaking countries, and yet the vast majority of you can speak English better than the rest of us.... I could put in at the local university for 'English as a second language' and they would believe me... Well technically I don't speak English, certainly not proper English, King's or American. And given where I am from... 'The Big Nowhere'...as its often called due to being nothing but a bunch of small towns (most of you would call them villages, populations of between 500-3000), though more properly known as 'The Big Country', in Texas. I'm surrounded by flat open spaces and cotton fields...and cattle...lots of cattle. Just spent two years in Texas! San Antonio in '09 and El Paso in '10. Good people. Yeah, I lived there for seven years before moving to my current location.
