Hi, Mark. I didn't see your ping from 9/7 until today. Thanks, though I can't claim much merit there--the Hungarian r is pretty much like the Spanish one. (My kids, who learned to read and write in English first, couldn't believe that the Hungarian r was written with the same letter, when it seemed to have nothing to do with what they thought of as an r.)
It's much more impressive for "real" Americans to be able to roll their r's. :-)

Have been cleaning out my email inbox and came across this. You might have seen it before, but I thought you might like it if you haven't.

Mark, of course, it's up to you, but I have no intentions of ever commenting on any post submitted to that group. If you can't see the bait and the hatred already imposed on that thread, and if you think you are going to change any of it, then I think you might need to examine your own pride. Love in Christ, Sue
