Default Iowa Aviation Weather...en Espanol

That situation has recently changed, with the rise of misguided souls
who seem to believe that it is the U.S. taxpayer's sworn duty to
translate every official document and website into every language
(AKA: "foreign" ones), rather than raising the bar the *tiny* amount
it would take to require English language skills of our citizens.


I guess this is going to be another point where we will disagree :-)
it is not however a matter of 'moral relativism', but of different
background; I know, albeit indirectly, what forced integration
looks like, and it isn't pretty (horror stories from my late
grand dad, the french were quite brutal in their way of spreading
the 'One True Culture/Language (tm)' -- which makes it all the more
ironic when you hear them whine today about anglo-saxon cultural
imperialism, but I digress);

since we are way off topic wise, anyone could suggest a good Spanish
language course in Santa Clara county? my high-school Spanish is
quite a bit rusted and I wouldn't mind getting back to learning it.
