As a Knight of Columbus agent up at the Home Office training school, I witnessed one of the delightful culture shocks possible in the New World -- A Quebecois trying to chat french with a Bayou Cajun. They tried to make a go of it for a few minutes, but both ended up switching to English as neither was really comprehensible to the other. Worth a few laughs at the time.
I don’t imagine they had much better luck with English did they?
Must have been a real riot!

Education: that which reveals to the wise,
and conceals from the stupid,
the vast limits of their knowledge.
