Danke!! As a translator and world traveller, I truly appreciated this post. It is only through understanding a person's language that we can overcome barriers, live together in harmony, ebony and ivory and all that crap. Oh, Don Cheadle asked me if you could do one in Italian? He'll be visiting Georgie soon on Lake Como. That would be swell!
