A quick note: I object to the term 'foreign language' for anything non-english. To me as a Belgian, a foreign language is anything that is not Dutch, French or German. I feel that it is inappropriate to consider English as being everyone's 'native', 'official' or 'national' language. I do not like to be considered a foreinger when I'm sitting behind my own computer in my own house in my native town, reading my favorite list. If someone on the internet is a foreigner, then everyone is.
The only argument I can see favoring English only is that this is a US based list. I think since the list resides in the US, it is not inappropriate to consider other languages foreign. Although officially the USA does not have a national language...

Fade far away, dissolve, and quite forget
What thou among the leaves hast never known,
The weariness, the fever and the fret
Here, where men sit and hear each other groan;
- John Keats: "Ode To A Nightingale"
