ambiguity is not only bad , its evil.
and foreign words disturb the pureness of a langauge, and thats where i
agree wih the french policy to avoid anglicisms to keep the cultural

its my opinion and if you dont like it then why do you care for it ?
do you think your statement is less emotional or more objective ?
please dont bother me with such stupid comments.

regards,
c.s.
