Wow, we've gone well-off the beaten path....
For one, english is considered a "global language" as a significant amount
of worldwide business (and virtually all technical training) is delivered in
english.
However, even though this domain/listserver is based on American soil, I'm
pretty sure that doesn't guarantee any sovereign rights!
So whether we're bitching about dialing a specific digit in order to find
someone who speaks the de facto native tongue or not is really a completely
different debate.
On the flip side, while yes, it irritates the shit out of me when people
immigrate to a new country (especially if it's illegal immigration) and sue
in order to have things done in their former native language which they
left.   But that really is a whole different venue. :)
Nobody immigrated to this list.  It just is.  This has been going on for a
long time though.  I distinctly remember covering the Olympic Festival in
Los Angeles (circa 1991) and walking into a McDonalds in downtown LA and not
being able to read the menu.  Thank goodness for the bright idea of picture
menus ('cause I can't read braille either!).  But that wasn't Spanish
believe it or not.  It was Vietnamese.  Just happened to be the district I
was in at the time.
Whaddya do?  Bitch and whine, but not here.  Call your
senator/representative.  In the meantime, it's our own problem for going
without an official language for 200+ years.  :)

PS.  Still has nothing to do with the CCIE!

i did promise my self to stop feeding the troll, but you just keep begging
for it... since when is this list considered "american soil"?
> Tell me Javier,  Do you have "Press 2 for English" in your country?
as a matter of fact i have to do it...and this brings me to a whole other
point: if you just for a second could stick your head out of your butt and
tried to know a little more of the world around you, you would find that
this is a pretty common occurrence, specially in this global corporate
world...
>  So stop this crap and learn English just like every other immigrant.
just to try to understand: what bio-chemical reactions in your brain makes
you think that victor or my self or as a matter of fact any other non-native
english speaking in this list wants to be an inmigrant in the US?
if there is something that has to stop here is your "america uber alles"
crap...
