Hi KB,
If I may make one observation.
In the case of WM, English isn't his first language. I know if I had to try and learn Polish and then go on a Polish forum and discuss finer points with someone who speaks Polish as their first language - seems a daunting prospect!!!
In the circumstances he does do miles better than I would do in a foreign language. Takes me all my time to speak English!!! 
All the best
English is not my first language either. It's norwegian.
All the best to you too

Well, I can tell you without a shred of sarcasm that I am way impressed - seriously!!!
I tried to learn a foreign language and I found it incredibly difficult. It was in connection with my job and when that changed I never followed it through. But it is an ambition of mine to seriously tackle a foreign language and come anywhere near what you guys have been able to discuss on this thread.
You both speak excellent English - and make far more sense than most people I meet in my area!!! So hats off to both of you.
We are a lazy lot in the UK when it comes to languages - we seem to expect everybody to talk English, and its a bad philosophy. Fortunately, my two daughters are being taught foreign languages at school - it is now compulsory to take at least one language other than English - my oldest daughter is taking both German and French. And we are encouraging her to keep it going.
One day though, I will learn myself. In the meantime, it does take me all my time to make any sense in English!!! 
All the best,
MH1

Nobody expects anyone but norwegians to speak norwegian. And that's a good philosophy!

Re: Rapture and Steve Morse
In fact, norwegian is one of the hardest languages to learn.
I think it is very easy, but then again- I'm a bloody genius

Re: Rapture and Steve Morse
Steve Morse still plays the same but he still wibble or whatever you call that and it really pisses me off. I can hear thet Morse is trying very hard to eradicate it, but he can't because it's his style coz he is trying to make-up for the hard rock sound that he did not have in his system, that is why he is playing like that, coz he does not have a clue of what he is doing.
I expect Larry Dude and Fireball to cast the first stone.
I hope it's only a stone not a cannon.

Re: Rapture and Steve Morse
Yes big help
I had to keep my tummy clean this season,so I wouldn't get behind the wheel and get yet another drunk driving ticket...next one and I'm out of the country.
And Merry Christmas to you and your newly acquired family Helmut.
