130. Call me odd, but I don't think it's important for me to know a foreign language.

Mind you, that's probably because I've never been a fan of language much at all, english or otherwise.

Stupid need to communicate with others. ;)

Hmmmm, I might be jaded because I can just use IUPAC standards to read the various things I've needed to in other languages, though. :shrug:

Note: IUPAC = International Union of Physicists and Chemists - it means I can understand chemical stuff even when it is mostly written and labelled in, say, German.
