Yes this was the problem.  I changed it and now I am a happy.  However I
noticed that pcsim does not work correctly with the LANG set to C.
(I get this error: ERROR: NLS message catalog missing.)  Change back to
En_US and it works fine.  Are there any other programs that will break if
I set my LANG to C??

Thanks tons!
