Orchid, as for languages, there is a way to work around that too.

I'll give you an example. I really like my SIL's mother. She is Algerian and only speaks French. Yet, I email her all the time and she is a friend of mine on facebook. I use the google translator and it has been working great. I am so glad for this tool because this woman is remarkable and I enjoy our conversations.

Cheers,
Cathi
