“The value of a network grows exponentially to its size.”—Reed’s Law I became American last month.Thank you. As a proper new American, I immediately started wondering: “Should everybody just start speaking English already?” In the Book of Genesis (am I a proper American or what?!), when humans spoke the same language, they decided to build the Tower of Babel and reach the heavens. God didn’t want that, and His response was to divide people by having them speak different languages. Unable to communicate, they couldn’t build the tower, and scattered. As He had wanted. That’s the first reference I know about strength in numbers, when the whole is stronger than its parts.
Should Everybody Learn English?
