Migeru and Page, calm down.  I certainly don't want to see either of you leave (or change names).  Who the hell am I going to discuss university stuff with if you leave, Miguel?

As far as other languages are concerned, the thread from the other day didn't bother me.  As I've said before, I'm not strong with foreign languages.  It's not for a lack of effort.  I took a few years of Spanish and French, though, granted, the teachers were horrible.  I simply have trouble getting into the proper mindset.

But non-English threads don't bother me, personally.  I'm not able to participate, but my lack of knowledge shouldn't be grounds for forcing the rest of you to stick with English.  I certainly don't want to reduce the ability of others, who might either not speak English or speak very little, to participate and be comfortable in their word usage.  I say, Bring On the Furrenerspeak! :)

I'm glad to have our little Russian invasion, for example.  It gives lazy pricks like me the chance to learn about what is really going on at the Kremlin, instead of what the press tells the American public.

This is true.  But I would still miss your diaries.  And the rest of the EuroTrib community would be poorer for it, in my opinion.  Plus, as a mathematical physicist here, you can keep all of the economists in line. ;)

Good, because they write such esoteric diaries...

It's an elite thing.
