    @Hamza-Yunus nice story, cool to see fellow countrymen helping each other out!

    @Kasi has real passion for all of this, and made me feel very welcome when I attended my first (and second) Iron Heart party!

    Hope that one day you get the chance to come to one 👌

        @T4920 Attending an IH party would require more than just crossed fingers—or even crossed legs. I'm not someone who typically aims for the stars, but having that in my portfolio would be amazing. Who knows, maybe one day it could happen. Unless, of course, he brings the party to Pakistan, though the chances of that feel as slim as thin air.

              @T4920 so far, the only thing I did not like about Mo is that he lives in Manchester and he does not care if the sky is red or blue there. That's like life or death there, Beatles or Rolling stones there. No one is perfect, we r humans, we all have flaws, still we love and care for each other, right?

                          Pointed Musing

                          It occurs to me that the inimitable Shinichi Haraki (and his Japanese team - somewhat like the tinkering and racing success of the late American Carroll Shelby) have created (with the considerable marketing foresight of Englishman Giles Padmore and his team) this outlet for a global consortium of high-minded people who represent and promote the distilled best of what human culture has created. Although I fear for the future of humanity (there are too fucking many of us), this forum is a safe place to interact and enjoy people who strive for their best. Some might think Duh!, but I want to state the obvious, and sincerely thank the afore-mentioned people and their organizations for helping to sustain what remains of my faith in mankind (old enough to know what was). I recently witnessed the 101-year-old Canadian John Neu receiving the French Legion Of Honour, "There are some countries in the world who are going through the same hiccup that Europe went through before the second world war. I can see the signs." It was extremely emotional for me to hear this man relate his experience of attending Bergen-Belsen shortly before victory in 1945 and helping the Allies bury thousands in mass graves. This survivor crossed the ocean at 19 years to fight for the freedom that I enjoy in Canada today. What he lived through makes me feel inadequate. I wonder how willingly today's 19 year olds (or any of us) would take up that mantle and put their lives on the line to survive against the odds. High-minded, indeed.

                              For you international, multilingual folks, is there one language you would recommend to learn as a second to English? I’m in my 50’s and need a brain challenge…other than having teenagers.

                                Probably French or Spanish with the most chance of being able to use it frequently. I have thought Japanese would be fun to learn.

                                @Alex thoughts and insights on Japanese?

                                  @SKT I would definitely say Spanish. There are twice as many native Spanish speakers as French. ( All of South America except Brazil).
                                  My daughter speaks it fluently and says it’s one of the more straightforward languages to learn and has helped her to understand Portuguese and Italian.

                                    @SKT Learning Japanese has worked out well for me. Not the most widely spoken language, but I was able to have about 5 or 6 different conversations on my recent trip.

                                      Thanks guys. Spanish does seem to be a no-brainer. But the idea of Japanese is very interesting just because it’s so different. Appreciate everyone’s thoughts

                                        @SKT I am pretty fluent in french, and have I'd say an intermediate standard of Japanese. Japanese is really, really fucking hard. French comparatively was super easy - I would say both are as useful or useless as each other in that there are not many places other than France or Japan that either are useful, though French clearly is slightly more widely spoken than Japanese globally.

                                        I assume Spanish is the obvious choice for any American - my foundation in french gives me above average comprehension in Spanish/Italian. My Japanese gives me little to no benefit in China (only obvious comparison)

                                          @Alex thanks Alex. I mean Japanese looks hard. It would really be a challenge to learn at this point I’m thinking. I like what you said about French giving you a foundational understanding of Spanish/Italian. I would hope learning Spanish would do the same for me with Italian and French. More bang for the buck
