While half listening to a colleague at lunch, I started daydreaming thinking about anything other than what he was talking about and I started to think that the royal 'they' should find some sort of chip we can insert in our necks, lets say, or maybe put on a contact lens or something that allows us to have a complete and instant mastery of any language we need to have a complete and instant mastery of.
You could have a library of language chips. Taking a vacation in a country where you don't know the language, slip in a disk, pop in that lens. Be fluent in seconds. I thought it was a pretty cool idea.

hehe! I was making the same face as my mood icon as I wrote this...I'll be going now
