A question

This might be a stupid question.

Some people on this board are from other countrys, do they know English or does the computer translate what they say for us?

Titan, I think the contributions from writers in other countries are in their own best English. It takes exceptional software to translate well and it's unlikely that a web-board such as this would do it automatically.

That would be so cool. But us from other countrys just have to do our best. Actually most people who deal with computers need to speak english.

I don't think even some of the best translation software in existence can translate colloquial Danish, for example, accurately... Altavista's translations, for example, are funnier than they are good. 🙂

P.S.: Enlightening topic name, Titan.

i guess the web isn't as inclusive as one would hope, then. enlish-fluent is a pretty discriminating requirement.

If someone has a screen name like Opalius, it proably means they're not english.

Actually opalius doesn't have anyting to do with denmark. Just used the name when i was writing grafitti. Maybe its more like the ancient romans, since i live in Italy. Dont know, could be im just babbling, but hey its early for me 🙂

Opalius, please change your sig or I will have to delete your posts orlower your karma. I cannot reach you by e-mail to warn you, so this is your warning.
