I see a fair bit of traffic on the more techie USENET groups with the
broken
English of non-native speakers, so I'm not quite ready to go with your
"most non-native ..." assertion. These are often people at least somewhat
knowledgeable in the field under discussion (networking, programming,
etc.), but for whom English is a bit of a stretch.


I suppose that depends on the techie newsgroup you're talking about. But
the two that I follow most closely are populated almost entirely by people
for whom English is not their native language. They all write better than
the person in question here (and some are pretty hard to understand).

In any case, like I said...I think it's a pretty good bet the guy's first
language is English. Non-natives don't get their panties in such a twist
over perceived conspiracies like the one he's ranting about, and his utter
lack of facility with the English language in no way rules out that language
being his first (and only).
