Are you sure that it is official? I do remember stories of some states wanting to make English the official language of the state. If it was already the official language of the USA, there wouldn't be a need to do that. I do understand that both English and French are official languages of Canada. That is, there is an actual law requiring things to be written in both. That is, things like labels on products you might find in a store, for example. As far as I know, the US doesn't have such a law. -- glen
