[quote=GRIZ326 ,29250]The United States has not declared English as the national language. American-english is the language of technology. A dozen years ago, I was hired by one of Europe's equivalents to the US Nuclear Energy Commission to act as their official spokesman for conventions because they wanted a native, American-english speaker. That ruffled quite a few feathers, but it worked.A common language binds the people. While China must manage fenyang the written language provides coherent communication. At least that is what I've read and been told. Technology is merging us into one community. There is some good and a lot of bad in the transition. Personally, I prefer to see an old cigar box and abacus used by vendors rather than a barcode scanner and electronic cash register. The transition will bring many sad losses.[/quote]
