[quote=BarbaraGordon;85895]Not true, Mr. Borg-man.

...we're at the highest point since the forties, but it's not unprecedented..

...Not a single one of the adults spoke English. At all. But all of the kids interacted in English, even though they're clearly from Spanish-speaking homes and could just as easily conduct their playtime in Spanish.quote]

Not unprecedented? I've not done my homework...but when were we at a higher rate?

I wonder too, if he isn't including all of the unaccounted "illegal" aliens in our country.

Non speaking adults...there are certainly cases to be made for both situations. I certainly am not painting with such a broad brush as to say "all" don't want to assimilate our culture. I have concerns though, I may be mistaken, but in California, is there some bill being suggested to make "English" the official language of California? When that starts happening, it's a bad sign.
