I think you misunderstood *my* reply.  What is ridiculous is telling
someone they should only speak English.  I think that's rather
elitist.  Imagine, if you will, the amount of English language a
non-English speaking person must plow through in order to get any help
with FreeBSD.  I think the English speakers among us ought to be able to
bear with some Spanish or Romanian messages now and then.
