"What are the odds that a random Georgia lady in a restaurant would be able to recognize spoken Arabic? None. Nil. Zip."

Except that she has family members of ME descent and has hosted exchange students of ME descent. She's not as hick as she's being portrayed.

Shame on me for not knowing that. I was not, however, implying that she is a hick. If failing to recognize spoken Arabic qualifies one as a hick, there are about 350 million of us. Even in the Arabic language there are hundreds of dialects.
