Polyglots

One of the things that I've always wanted to do and I kick myself in the butt for not ever getting started on is learning another language. I feel like if I really just put some time into it, there are two or three languages that I could become proficient in, but unfortunately, I'm lazy. Then I heard about Sir John Bowring, a former British colonial governor of China who could reportedly speak 100 languages and had knowledge of 200+. I'm not sure whether that's true or not, but Wikipedia has a list of people who knew multiple languages. And I am impressed. Damn, I'm lazy!

Ed sent me this link, and I thought it needed to be shared with everyone.....
