JenL Aug 2013 9:28am, 9 Aug 2013 25,653 posts	Quote Pin JenL I feel the same about the preservation of languages. You can't insist on people continuing to speak something they don't find useful or beneficial. That's every bit as bad as linguistic imperialism. I think I feel like this about spending public money on restoring old buildings too, actually - National Trust et al take note

Oysterboy Aug 2013 1:34pm, 11 Aug 2013 7,380 posts	Quote Pin Oysterboy The co-op is pretty shit. I used to work for their legal services so got a staff discount in stores but half the time they don't have what you want and the stores are horrible. They all look old and shabby.
