>>How do you explain people who are fluent in several languages?

>>My wife is fluent in 5 languages and could easily be a U.N. interpreter if she so chose.

A little trivia for you. In Iceland, this is a norm. Actually I belive more. Not worth it to me to figure out the number


I guess the last time I ran into this one I said. "I'm rather impressed that what you know you can say 7 different ways, but spending all this effort learning to say things seven different ways have you learned anything worth saying."

By the way, if your wife could really be a U.N. interpreter, I believe that your financial opportunities would improve much more than learning some programming language. <vbg>
