Q: what do you call someone who speaks two languages?

Q: what do you call someone who speaks three languages?
A: trilingual

Q: what do you call someone who only speaks one language?
A: american

that said, i do apologize for assuming that everyone uses the same
keyboard as i do. i thought that email is only supposed to be 7-bit, and i
never thought about compatibility issues when using OpenPGP with 8-bit
text.... are there problems with that? how so?
