Akane Aikawa Hmmm... a good way to learn japanese? Spontaneously move to Japan in a near fruitless search of your true love! I'm sure you'll learn to speak japanese very quickly then. ^_~ Akane Aikawa Otherwise, I would say your best bet is the same thing lots of other people do in your situation - take a class. They tend to speak both languages there. Akane Aikawa As for why there are less than there were before? Well, several of our operators have moved onto different things. Life goes on and changes. I suppose we need to have a recruitment drive sometime. Then again, our volume of calls has been pretty low or redundant. We haven't had any really new or unique questions in a while that we haven't really answered... so no sense in beating a dead horse.
