Don't second guess yourself about starting a thread. That's what this place is for.
The majority of Bible verses that mention speaking in tongues are in First Corinthians. Paul generally advises that only one or two people speak in tongues at church, and then only if an interpreter is present. Otherwise keep quiet. He feared, justifiably, that if a stranger were to walk in and see the whole congregation babbling, he'd think they were insane.
He also said that when someone speaks in tongues, they're talking to God because nobody else can understand them.
