[Grovenet] Federal Court Ruling Prods Texas on ELLs

[Steve Jerrett]

Mike,

I can usually follow threads as they gradually migrate from subject to 
subject, but this "changus abruptus" leaves me baffled.

However , in an attempt to tie the two subjects together, I believe that 
Jesus diría "vende su ropa para comprar los fusiles".  (My best attempt at 
translation)
