if it weren't for the illegals, I woudn't know how to speak the pequeno espanol I know today. Like my illegal tenants I have in one palce (id dint know), when they came over the other night to discuss how they wre going to pay me the back rent, they were talking among themselves, with a kid translating. I freaked them out, because I intererrupted them a couple times to correct them, ecasue I understood what they were saying. I wish I could speak. Go to a pizzera, find me a palce where there is an Italian making the pizza ( I know of one). Same everywhere else. I also try to to assemble stuff using another language. Today when you buy something, it's usually made to be sold everywhere, so you get directions in 10 languages. You get pictures as well. It works. The FASTEST growing market (and more spending) is the hispanc market - Internet and TV. So if yu have a website, it could be country specific. I worked on a project like that before. Real fun, especially trying to design a single interface. Then again, shoul;dn't the cityofasburypark.com be available in Spanish and English? As an experiment in foregin e-commerce, see tvshowstore.com. Nothing fancy, but I sell more stuff in French, in France via amazon.fr, Click on the French Flag, I know very little french . I did this once befiore on the asbury site - sold some bruce stuff in Germany. OUR problem is that OUR schools teach us that we are superior instead of teaching us to WORLD culture. They're trying in public schools. I've said it before, I wish I were (or was) fluent in more then ONE language. It's much easier to tell the guy fixing your house or cleaning it what to do in their language, even though they fully understand English. Yes, English is our first language, this is america etc etc etc etc. Bon apres-midi (my daughter jsut showed me that one) Buenos Dias Yo Later Shalom chau ciao Hasta la vista bye ************************************** Get a sneak peek of the all-new AOL at http://discover.aol.com/memed/aolcom30tour
