Whew...squeaked by another crazy proposal... The FCC would have to write
the rules in Spanish if they tested in that language. I myself am a
proponent of 'if you live here, learn the language'. I wouldn't expect
some foreign country to cater to English if I moved there.

See the FCC's response to the request by the Puerto Rico Amateur Radio
League:

And ARRL Letter, dated March 2, 2007, half way down the page:
FCC Says No to Petition Calling for Exams in Languages other than
English:

It wasn't even an ARRL Push, but it's still "good" fodder for some.

Thanks Pete,
You know I'm no cheerleader for the (be)League(d) but I thought that
email by W0LPQ was a misunderstanding by what the FCC said. I remember
reading it in March which is bizarre since I don't frequent the ARRgghhL's
website nor the FCC's website all that often. Like you said, good fodder.
Mod-U-Lator,
