That was and interesting fact! So who is going to make web page hooked up to a translation algorithm to demonstrate this to visitors? You know this is the perfect type of thing that makes those interesting little corners of the web we are always posting here. Anybody got the time for it? |

You mean Slime didn't use a translator for his post? He hand-typed (er, hand-jumbled) it? |

No link, it was pasted to me over AIM. I think it took a long journey through AIM conversations, so the source has been lost. I wouldn't be surprised if there was no actual research done anywhere. |
