If you want to see poor, no... murdered English, just come here to Silicon Valley USA! I have learned to understand English spoken and written that is missing every other syllable, no word endings (ex; what ti the cla say = what time does the clock say, meaning, what time is it!), L's and R's swapped, F's and TH's swapped, and Ebonics is just 40 miles up highway 880 from here (Oakland). So all you LUGgers that keep apologizing for your English, please don't. Your English is GREAT! I love it. Jim ps, I know another Detlef. A friend in Carmel CA, his name is Detlef Bittner and he owns a Fine Pen store (Mont Blanc, Pelikan, etc.) www.bittner.com . How common is the name Detlef ? thanks again, Jim
