No hablo Espanol, senor.
Apologies. The thing is, sometimes mail from the list don't seem to come (only) from the list. Yours for instance apparently was sent both to my address directly and to the list. And your message also has a "Reply-To: jim bell <jdb10987@...> field. Same thing happened with Brenda's message. So, I asked Brenda if she is still loyal to the local (argentina) bitcoin mafia.
This reminds me of something that happened in prison in 2006. I was cellies in the SHU (solitary, sort of) with a Mexican, who was illiterate in both English and Spanish. He'd received some sort of official letter, in Spanish, probably from the Mexican government. I don't understand (nearly all) Spanish, but I understood, in general, how to pronounce Spanish. So, I "read" the letter to him, not understanding it at all, and HE understood what I was reading! I was careful to explain to him that despite the fact I was reading it in Spanish, I had no idea what I was reading actually meant.
That's a great story =)
