[thelist] Creating a website for South/Central America

[George Donnelly]

yeah you're right but i think we were talking about "major" languages. less
than a million people does not "major" make :-)

i think if he makes sites in Spanish and Portuguese, then he's probably got
99% of everybody who might be using a computer there. Add English and its
darned near 100% right?
