1) Mexico is part of America. (Do you remember learning about North
America [which has several countries and more than one language],
Central America [which has several countries and more than one
language], South America [which has several countries and more than one
language]?)

2) Many of us are not in America.

Your lame follow-up posting does not excuse your ignorance of usenet
and of geography.

Hopefully it's ignorance, not arrogance.

What a rude, ignorant, arrogant, and ethnocentric comment. First,
English is the MINORITY language in america, which extends from northern
Canada to Tierra del Fuego. Second, there are many readers of this group
that are not in america. Third, and finally, the English translations
WERE included, but what kind of observation skills can you expect from
someone who would make the above comment?

It is in both english and spanish.
