Of course I've spoken in tongues spontaneously, so I don't worry much about these little problems.
I`d be a little worried about that,but thats just me I guess.
Has this speaking in tongues thing ever happened in public? Like while shopping at your local Walmart?

I think Ebonics evolved out of jive. They wanted to put Ebonics classes in the schools one time in California. I't didn't happen.

Knocking boots = having sex

I worked in a really scary psych. hospital once with all severe schizophrenics. Lots of them spoke in tongues, only the real word for it is glossolalia. <shiver> I only stayed there 7 months. TOO FREAKY and very scary and dangerous.

I think we just have to assume that everyone will just understand everyone, because for all we know, non-Earthlings may communicate in some other way than language.
