" In the early 1800s, Congress voted to specify an official language for
" the USA.  German came close to winning.

at that time the us pop was ~1/3 english, ~1/3 scots + irish, and ~1/3
german.  it was a valid option then.

" We should use English, and nothing else.

i agree.  any standard is better than none, and english has the high
ground.
