Ha! Well stated. Although from what this poster has said in earlier posts I doubt he is young enough to change his ways anymore, not that older people can't. It's just that he can't.

When you don't speak the local language fluently, you are cut off from reality. Not being able to do things such as reading magazines, books, and newspapers, watching anything on TV without subtitles, knowing how locals think when they converse in their own respective languages can make a person drown in their own romances of where they are at. Of course, being so ignorant will let them think that the problems for said country they are living in as pointed out by others have absolutely nothing to do with reality anyway, since they don't have the intelligence to comprehend it.
