    No, not German. No, not French.

    If I saw that sign, I certainly would not buy from that merchant. I will do business with some merchants that do not offer a senior discount, but not one who takes pride in and is so boastful of the fact.

    No. Not a general.

    On the Autostrada in Italy, there may be two lanes clearly marked in each direction, but the natives often drive three or four abreast.

    It is indeed “The Great Indestructible”, Eddie Rickenbacker, a protege of Raoul Lufbery. Congratulations, Gabriel! For an interesting short biography, see Rickenbacker outfoxed grim reaper time and again.

    I think anyone who can learn a foreign language and learn it well enough to actually think in that language has really accomplished something. Being an American, I am almost exclusively an English speaker. The little Italian, Spanish, and French I have learned are barely enough to keep me from starving when traveling. As for high school Latin, it helps build English vocabulary more then anything else. I thank those GA authors who learned English as a second language for their efforts. The body of literature here is much richer for your presence.

    True. He was older than this picture when he became famous. There was no YouTube or America's Got Talent during his youth.

    The piazza in Naples either has no traffic signals or everyone runs the red lights.

    I've never been there and certainly wouldn't want to drive there...

    I like the map "Every Country England Has Ever Invaded (all but 22 countries in the world)". It explains a lot about many of the other maps except, notably, "Worldwide Driving Orientation".
