Hiya People... If you've ever tried one of those computer translators, you'll know what this is like... Wishes & Dreams... - ANDREA xx *********THE LOONY BIN****loonies@bloodaxe.com********* Archive: http://www.theloonies.co.uk/ ************ANDROMEDA******Internet Goddess************ ------- Forwarded foolishness follows ------- TRANSLATORS ARE TRAITORS Computers have been developed which can translate any language into another. Ideally, if the translated passage were then translated by computer back into the first language, the original words ought to be regained. This, however, does not allow for the ambiguity of languages. Thus, there is the story of the computer that was ordered to translate a common English phrase into Russian and then translate the Russian translation back into English. What went in was: "Out of sight, out of mind." What came out was: "Invisible insanity."
