Hm...I don't have a foreign flag outside of my house either. I don't care to mention my heritage unless it is brought up by someone else and it often is. Stop being pretentious.

I was told that if you can speak spanish, english, arabic (egyption), mandarin, and swahili you can communicate with roughly 88% of the worlds population. I dont know if that figure is actual representative to the true figure or not but just a tid bit of info I learned from my former language instructor.
