Whatever language it be, you do need to be competent in a human language to be a good programmer. I speak only English of all human languages (can comprehend a smattering of phrases in a few other languages, but no fluency), and there are plenty of programmers who speak only X for some other X, but you do need the skill of coalescing thoughts into words. If nothing else, it makes everyone's lives easier when you ask for help :) ChrisA -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
