Bob I felt it was more private here but sine you insist.

Anyone who reads his comment sees racism. Well maybe not another racist wouldn't even bat an eye.

Looks pretty pathetic your comment in defence, is Barney not a grown man and stand up or admit a mistake in the way he commented there.

Barney what the fuck is a"Real Person That Speaks American".

Of cource you haven't replied back at AK what about here?
To answer you question, evidently you may not have talked to many phone centers lately. Talking by chat via messaging or selecting options or a live conversation. I will always try talking to a real live person. But when the people on the other end talk English but with a strong accent, one that I find hard to understand. Even when it is their first language and speak it properly.

By stating ""American"" the only point I was making was someone in the US to talk to. Who is use to the language and mannerisms that come from living here. Not necessarily born in the USA but experienced with talking to people in the US. For trust me they have as much of a problem with understanding me as I do them. This gets frustrating quickly for all involved. More so if the truth be known I have a hard time with English.

As to responding in what you consider a timely fashion. Sometimes posts get missed and or buried when one is enjoying life away from the computer. Life has many facets filled with distractions. Keeping up with many distractions, priorities and the likes is a never ending enjoyment.

I gather that you have never called customer support and wound up with someone totally unfamiliar with American or English and I can assure you that they are two different languages.

BTW why don't you ask Pete to remove the word smart from your name tag.

Thanks for the support.

Who said Americans speak English? I've been reminded many a time by English friends that we do not.

I suppose that when he sees you criticize someone who has difficulty communicating he takes it personally. It hits too close to home.

My last experience with this was someone with good English with a thick accent, a drawing for a car with strings attached. They would not take a gay couple as "finalists".

When you load Microsoft Word it asks you what flavour of "English" do you want the spell checker to use.
