if you do not want "another language", then, yes, "another language"  
is not something for you. although i'm not sure i see the point of  
that statement, it's similar to saying: "i seem to be missing the  
point why all those stores keep sell oranges. i only wanna eat apples".

if you think Prism has something for you, use it; if you don't, don't.

yours,
marc
