LA Superior Court Web Site

Wednesday, April 10, 2002

The Superior Court of California has a terrific web site. I have no idea what possessed them to use *images* instead of *text* for all their links, though. That’s just plain stupid. But … I was able to pay my latest traffic citation on line, which was very nice.

Hmmm, the answer to your question, *images vs. text* lies in your last two paragraphs. Ahhh, California, the land of many languages. It’s so easy to say “learn English”, but trying to learn a language that has the most exceptions to the rules has mucho problemos. I’ve heard English and Hungarian are the hardest languages to learn, unless you were raised on them.

In Texas the drivers test was all visual. A situation was dipicted and there would be 3 or four solutions to pack from - all cartoon-like panels. Pretty cool, I didn’t even ave to speak legalese to pass.
