Dennis - your proposal sounded more like a joke than any posssibly 
serious explanation to work around an Acrobat persistent crash.

But I have confidence in you, so:

I launched Acrobat.
It crashed as normal. (scientist, verifying his starting assumptions)
  I followed your instructions about the language sequence swap.
I launched Acrobat.
No problem.
Quit Acrobat.
Re-launched Acrobat (scientist confirming his new unexpected observation)
No problem.

Absolutely the weirdest feeling.......!!

IThanks anyway for sharing this effective but very unusual solution.

regards,  Trevor
