Absolutely not. While I can play the game of logic as well
as anyone, it has no value in reality.

Obviously you are no logician, reasoning by analogy which is
not even part of logic. But yes, there was a person who first
spoke English. This should be apparent to any thinker. No, I
cannot identify that person. That person lived in England.
Prior to speaking English, that person spoke AngloSaxon to
others in his/her society. I think you need to learn how to
use the limited mind you have.

Why in the world would you imagine that the first to do 
anything can always be identified? Neckties exist, but I or
no one else can identify the first person to wear a necktie.
Shoelaces exist but I or no one else can identify the first
person to use them. Belts exist but I or no one else can
identify the first person to wear one. You imagine these
things have existed for all eternity?

There're not hard to find when they actively seek me out.
Money in some quantity seems to be a most effective aphrodisiac.
I'm positive I have more lovers on a regular basis now than you.
I see ad hominem remains the highest form of logic on this list.
