Sound like Acroplex's cousin. Yeah, we will just keep the internet in English and solve language issues by informing everyone that Chinese language websites use .cn, the French language websites are found at .fr and Japanese speakers can find things they read at .jp.

This guy needs to get an IDN earful on unicode to punycode conversions to reach international language websites.

he forgot to mention the other thing about people were they always want to jump over the wall to see what is going on .jp or .fr is just local and who wants just local

Every form of economic development has had to overcome the opposition of Luddites. We seem to have more than our fair share, but that is probably only because the impact and repercussions of change will be so far reaching. If we just wanted to go behind the bike sheds for a fag, nobody would give a toss. Just think of it at as backhanded recognition of the importance of the project in hand.

For the Merkins on the list with their mouths wide open thinking RD goes behind the bike sheds for some back door action, fag=cigarette in Brit speak.

Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course.

A project in hand is worth two in the bush, even if you go about it with a backhand.

And Americans think that everyone speaks English!

Just to keep the humor moving along, I thought I might expound upon the term 'Merkin' for our American friends.. or murrakin as the case may be.

I think Merkin has grown in popularity, along with "nucular", for obvious reasons.
