A curious sort of troll

[fpb]

I just had a weird troll. Someone posted a comment in Russian. When I pointed out that it is very rude to post in a language that nobody else on the thread understands, I got more Russian. So I deleted and banned the poster as a troll. I wonder whether I ought to have answered in Italian, or, even better, in Milanese.

I'm not sure it would have been wise, but it would have had a definite sense of ironic poetic justice.

One wonders how long that (the posting in two completely different languages) could have gone on.

Speaking of languages

As I understand it, you are a translator.
Perhaps you could recommend a program for learning Italian.
I have a travelling type job where I can spend 9 or more hours driving a day
and the best of AC/DC, Jethro Tull, Dire Straights and Mozart gets repetative.
