Ben, be happy that your English is SO much better than this list's French. When you are being corrected next time, just say it all in French and let them translate it. I knew what you meant. Les Américains parlent seulement anglais et espagnol. Leur Français est terrible. Ma mère était des quebecois, ainsi je peux vous comprendre assez bien. Courtney
