the thing is that English neither my native language nor i
learned it in school (not really learned it at all in fact). i
can express myself in russian, ukrainian and some obscure
artificial language, but this will be of little use for the rest
of the community. ;-) i can easily read English, but my writing
skills are close to nothing.
