on the subject of English: when i came here, there was a battle topic where mega & demise urged anybody willing to try and embarrass' em. already some 12 pages deep when i joined, mind you. they all spoke English, and the language's no problem to me, so what the dickens. if anybody likes conversating in Russian more than in English, i think no-one's gonna shun him/her for that. me and Rocca can also do some showboating chatting in Swedish/Danish, but i suppose we're too fokking modest about it
