I think the message that needs to be transmited to RP is that we do know that there is several members of the FT community (Coupon Connection forum specially) that are out there just to put their hands on SWU, SSWU, etc.. and then go to eBay and sell them.
The thing I really like about the AC community is that most of the exchange (or give away) are done in very good faith. I'm not saying we don't have bad apple here (like the one who mentioned to a moderator that some coupon exchange was going on) but I think we do have showned a far superior sense of community than the Coupon Connection forum.
I know I can have a strong discussion/different point of view on something with someone and the next day I'll be (or he will) sending a SWU his/my way. The same is not true from others forums where it can get vey personal.
Maybe we just need to avoid the word exchange and start using give away instead...
My 2 cents...althougt I like the idea of communicating in French..

As part of the "university experience" shouldn't you at least be trying to pick up the language of the province where your school is located?

A local girlfriend might be a good start? The kid might even like them?
