OK I know Curiosity is up..... NCR

I found a site http://babelfish.altavista.com/translate.dyn that allows you to ‘on the fly’ translate into one of many languages, and view web sites in those languages. I viewed the chipboard in French, and posted using English. The results appeared in on the board in French, and English to me (until posted). The problem was that Chinese characters appear but do not post. The board looks REALLY strange in Chinese! Another problem is that I lost the cookie during translation and my password was in a new language, therefore when I finished I was not able to delete the messages that I had written.

This could be handy in acquiring Korean and Chinese currency. This tool also converts the foreign web sites back to English. There are some Asian sites that I have tried to use before but extremely little English is spoken. I have never had much luck before because of the language barrier. I wanted to check it on a ‘live’ board first, but left tracks (unable to delete my experiment when finished). Sorry.

Judging by the message counters people were reading and must be curious as to what the heck I was doing! Ok mystery is over LOL.
