I never said I hated anyone of any race, so it is not racist. I also 
have something to say, and supporting evidence to my claim.

Bad English needs to be stopped. (Linux-8086 commentary)

It just happens that every once in a while, some poor fellow somewhere 
on Earth just drives us mad with horrible, undecipherable English. It's 
only natural. The usual outcome is that people use the mailing list just 
to speculate to the meaning of the broken words. A quote, which 
undeniably proves this, is here:
===========8<============

 > Compiler how to is there any small compilers out there ? to work for
 > you on the ELKs system

Do you mean running a C compiler under ELKS or compilers that can be 
used to compile ELKS and user programs?
===========8<============
Undoubtly, horrible English such as this really pisses everyone off. 
There is, on occasion, a person that tells the original poster to learn 
better English. He is almost certanly right. The result is this person 
with this advise gets flamed by people in non-English speaking countries 
(Finland, Sweden, Germany, India, etc.) who have very good English, and 
  are just over conscious about how they appear to others. They flame 
back because they think *their* English is bad. These people, in 
pratice, are best off to just shut the fuck up. Usually, the thread 
evolves in this manner:

1. Some guy posts in the worst excuse for English imaginable
2. People speculate over the broken works, writing replies for all 
possible meanings
3. The annoying guy posts back something that can mean either that our 
English sucks (which is doesn't), or that he can't understand us, and 
for us to accomadate for him (which we really can't).
4a. People seculate on what the hell the guy wants.
4b. Flame war ensues.
5. Annoying guy sends 1.2MB e-mail containing nothing but "fuck you" 
repeated over and over because we couldn't help him.

It should also be noted that a lot of email clients and email providers 
mark such postings as spam.
