Hello everyone,
My name is John from Los Angeles. I am hoping to learn and find out the truth.
This site seems very intriguing and full of educated minds. I wish to put in work to pursue the truth and please excuse my English skills as it is my second language.
Believe me... English is hard language to learn =)

your at the right place, learn to filter out the bs quickly, and follow the truth, you'd be surprised the weird places the forums take you!

Hi John. Welcome to ATS.

I hope you enjoy this place as much as I do.

Hi:
Welcome. Firstly, regarding English, it is hard to learn, especially since the spelling is often so different from the pronounciation. Coming from SA, what I found confusing was the difference between standard and US English, and nowadys most essays must state if you are using an American spell-checker for essays. So we have "colour"; they have "color"; we have "grey", they have "gray". But hey, they say the best learning is immersion, so welcome, and by the way, your English is better than most, even native writers!
