I saw this in the thread on LeSabres and Centurions and had to laugh! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Don't ask me what the prize is...maybe a towel! This was the link: http://www.babelfish.altavista.com/babelfish/tr - Bill I'm still laughing! :grin:
I agree I was laughing when I read the link. I saw it on this board about a year ago. I believe it was me that re-posted it. It is a translation site. What you do is open the link and also open the site you want to translate. You highlite the sentence, right click on the mouse and and click on copy. THen on the babelfish site you right click in the box and click paste the line will appear in the box. THen scroll down the translations you want and click and it translates the sentence. I re-posted it as I was going into the other Riviera and big car sites that are in other languages. Its not an exact but it helps out a lot. And the site name is quite confusing to what the site does.
Just check the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Babel Fish entry. Ah, what a great "trilogy." I can't wait for the new movie to be released. The BBC movie was pretty bad, but I enjoy it and have grown to associate it with the series. I hope this new one does't ruin it too much. Here is the earth-based version of the guide. So far I've read all 5 1/2 books of the trilogy, listened to the recreated BBC radio show (not the recently completed stuff, though), the books on tape, the infamous BBC mini-series, and the text-based video game.
YES! I laughed so hard at the tape of the first book I almost lost consciousness! Hey Rick - " And the site name is quite confusing to what the site does." - not if you know what a Babel Fish is! :laugh: - Bill
