WOW - alright, I think I'd need to see citation, chapter AND verse thank
you, for such a bold statement... :-)

So, a little off topic (or not) - if you are that close to the BC line -

Languages spoken there. I felt a bit, un-education, after reading up
having been prompted by the emails and finding so much about the large
immigration numbers..sounds like Minnesota in the beginning of the last
century. My grand father's generation apparently could do quite well
speaking majority Norwegian/Swedish nearly full time - isn't so today of
