I am back, most of my twitter goes through @cwork_chris now though, here I can be a bit more language oriented.

@BillGlover Me too framework data abstraction protects me from complex SQL, but when I need it takes a while to get back in the zone.

@JonAndyMills anyone can sing but... "I said that fluently" vs "I speak fluent French" reasonable expectation don't mean fluid or a subset.

[chris_mandarin @chris_mandarin]

@JonAndyMills I ran, I run, I can run (so can we all). I am a runner (expectation of ability). I can sing (reasonable expectation of skill)

[chris_mandarin @chris_mandarin]

@JonAndyMills how is the word fluency misused? It means what most people think it means in context, unless deception is the intention.

@BillGlover I may have jumped the gun for mature Drupal crm http://www.dropcrm.org/ but there maybe some modules in 6 that would serve.

[chris_mandarin @chris_mandarin]

@BillGlover interested to know what you find cms seems to have evolved more than crm, may be something based on Drupal?

@shuocheng I think you meant trilled R ;) try imitating the sound of cat purring and move moving your tongue back and making the r sound...

@JonAndyMills like the ton of questions tweet, there is no one size fits all

[Andy Mills @JonAndyMills]

Fellow Polyglots: If someone asks you how to learn a language and you don't start asking them tons of questions, your ego may be in the way.
