I would like for everyone to learn it, but there are some older folks who move here and will never learn it and that is a fact of life... as you get older it becomes incredibly hard to learn a new language, on top of that the fact that EVERYONE knows spaish, then you are not 'forced' to learn it.

I think everyone NEEDS to speak english.. well.. that is untill we latinos take over!!
Yeah I was looking at some census bureau projections awhile back and it said in like the next 10 yrs. Latinos will outnumber African Americans and will be the major minority here. But STILL, if you can't speak the language that runs the game, how do you expect to get anywhere in it? Maybe the older folk can be stubborn, but I hope they're teaching their kids how to survive.
