lmckenzie: Regarding translation technology... I think most of the "flame wars" in this forum (hey, that's latin, meaning market place; commerce where ever you look tsktsk) are driven by slight misunderstandings, more or less. So, considering the state of translation technology, this opens up a real cosmos of new misunderstandings, where only some 4-letter-words might get through loud and clear. s We're going to live in interesting times! For my part I prefer to understand at least a little bit of my partner's language than to depend on technology. Even given my rather reduced vocabulary I can always give the benefit of the doubt and not assume worse than is written. Willy (51YO German, languages: English, Latin)
