[s]Probably[/s] moving to Miami - Please advise
CCM:
Scrap french and learn spanish. Hell, english is barely useful in Miami. Get used to the worst traffic and accidents you can imagine. Oppressive heat in the summer. Very high real estate costs. Watch out for hurricanes, gang members, alligators... I travel to Miami quite a bit for work and I would never live there!

Do you dream in French yet? (ie: you or others speak French in your dreams)
I hear that's a pretty good determination of one's fluency in a foreign language.

Well you have to be speaking the language a lot too. I only dream in English (as opposed to dutch which is my native language) when I speak English practically all the time.

Anyone who knows me would never attribute a statement resembling "there are less morons" to me.

My first thought was that he was new here ;D

It's practically like taking special measures to be sure that you will have everything in place that you might need in case you win the lottery. And I think that they are bad for society in general. So until I have some subjective reason for wanting one (i.e., I get mugged or my wife gets murdered, etc.) I'll just objectively say no thanks for now. I'm not saying that I will never get a CCW. I'm not saying that I won't ever regret not having one. I'm just saying it's not a priority for me right now, and most people I know who get them are paranoids, fanatics and conservatives -- all of which leave a bad taste in the mouth. ;D
