So do they still have a lot of German speakers there, or is that mostly Paraguay and Argentina?

Hi foca!

Well, this is one of the nice guys. The young girls who started this "invasion" are nice too, if you get to know them well.

Now, let's see... about the language... I am flattered by you guys saying that our grasp of English is good. Specially since I really don't think that's true. Well, the thing is, you never heard me trying to pronounce it. :D
The thing is, we work with computers. I am a network admin, and foca is a programmer. We *have* to be profficient in English. All the docs are in English, after all. The rest of the Uruguayan crowd are nerds. Well, we are, too, but we have stronger reasons to have a good level of English :D

German immigrants were mostly to Paraguay. Here (and also in Argentina) we had a lot of Italian immigrants. In fact, both foca's and my last name are Italian.

Demosthenes, yes, I would also think that the Internet would be a better place if the Remote Strangulation Protocol existed.

Detta... your cousin was in Dream Theater? You're my new god! (sorry, goddess)

Ok, I think that's all.

Yeah, the keyboardist (Kevin Moore) is my dad's cousin actually. This is what he's doing nowadays.  Holy crap, he has a forum on there.  Haha.

I haven't seen him since we were kids.  When my Uncle Mike (aka 7thson) was in college, Dream Theater was going to play there and they were being interviewed on the local radio station.  Mike asked the radio guys if he could sit in on the interview and they said yes.  When Dream Theater showed up Mike goes "Hey Kev, how's it going?" and Kevin goes "Great!  Are you with K96?"  Mike says "No.  I'm your cousin."  :|

The keyword is, of course, well :P

And as WASABI was saying, it's flattering to hear "real English writers" say that. And I say English writers, because your ears would hurt if you heard me speaking in English :P

Of course it would! :)

Though in the particular case of uhm... "Misato", it's already implemented.
The specs go something like:

Code: [Select]
pm = new PrivateMessage
pm.message = "strangulate Misato"
pm.to = "#foca"
pm.send
It may take a few days (that's because here we have really slow networks :roll:), but in the end it works.

Regrettably is not permanent, since #foca does not want to go to prison...
