      Only problem is that Arab isn't a language (is a group of people), ArabIC on the other hand is a language.

      So I guesss I win now

          Well, it is up to bulky Spartan to decide who is the winner. I am thinking of next question though.

            If you mean on Impaler, than you may be correct. :Cute: I am wondering whose name did you enter?

              First I entered Maniac as I thought they were asking for my name.
              Then Bush I think. I may have included you just for fun too IIRC.

                Anyway, for the new question: Who said this line (it is a SMAC character ): In the past thirty years, we have used our telescopes to gather a few terabytes of information about the target world. On this basis, we glibly call Chiron "Earthlike." I want you to consider for a moment what that means. Chiron has gravity not too much higher than we find comfortable, an atmosphere containing water and free oxygen, a surface climate that we can tolerate. That's all. Billions of years of separate evolution have inevitably made Chiron a greater challenge than we can imagine. Even the familiar will be alien.

                  Hmmm. That's likely from the background fiction, but I don't recall specifically. Was it Lieutenant Deirdre Skye?

                      English is spoken in Belize I think.

                          You got 1.2 for trying to guess three variants of the same language. However, I rate your current guess with 9.9. ( hint! ).

                            Yep -- the Queen's English. The same that's spoken in Britain, Australia, New Zealand, and many other Commonwealth nations around the world. It's us in the US who're the abberant ones. It's an abberation which is superior to the original, of course.
