Andrew raises a valid question here. Ideally, we'd have an assistant, or "national" security officer for each of the "officially" supported languages, who can also communicate effectively in (written, at least) english. So, which languages are you going to step up to support, Andrew? I can probably track down (non-technical) speakers of both Ute and Navajo, and possibly Shoshone if I'm willing to drive a bit. I can also translate into "sailor speak." If you don't know what that is, consider yourself lucky. Or read Mr. Buffett's new book, "A Pirate Looks at Fifty." (That'd be Jimmy, not Warren. ;^) -- Where am I, and what am I doing in this handbasket?
