Pah! Have been dealing closely with Texans and LA/AL people who gave a sh.. if people could follow conversations, or not. But hey, Scots can do even worse! Besides not understanding the verbal language they are able to let you remain clueless in their writing, as we got to know here. 
The best thing in this honorable forum is that you can learn something new every day, have a smile if not laughter, sometimes have to think again about your own wordings if some members (non-US) put the crab emoji on you.
And finally it has great mods, taking care of it, us and Greg Watts.
Yo… I should've been clearer the "it's all Greek to me" pun was genuinely funny, no shade to the Hodge at all. I tried to convey that with “the pun is fun” But my bad for not flagging that upfront. I was aiming at the broader forum default mode, not the comment. There's a difference between one dude making a joke and the whole room acting like English is the default setting for the entire planet. The Galileo thing was about the ethos, the reflex of "if it's not in English, it's not worth engaging with" not anyone in particular.
The Hodge's pun was quite funny and self aware. The problem is when that becomes the whole operating system.
Anyway, didn't mean to make it personal. Carry on.
