   I find it neat how people learn a new language. I
worked with a Mexican (legal by the way) who learned
english by watching cartoons first in spanish then the
same in english. When he first started at the concrete
plant his english was broken, hard to understand but
after the first few months he spoke almost as well as
anybody.
     I used to joke with him that he should of stuck
with Yogi Bear and Bugs Bunny to teach him proper
english. Rather than allowing them thar' rednecks to
learn him to talk.
