If you think it's off topic, then please don't post it.

Me, too. I admire people who jump in there and participate even when
they are not sure of themselves, but want to communicate.
If I were in that position, I would be trusting the good will of the
people receiving my communication, just as I trust the good will of
people in foreign countries when I try to speak their language.
I hope this topic goes away. It is ugly and small-minded and bigoted
and does not serve to enhance this list. Who knows what good
contributions we could be missing because non-native-English speakers
are put off by the attacks and criticism. Shall they go away until
they have mastered every subtlety of our language (something neither
you nor I has done) before they try to ask for some help? Is that the
price of entry here?
