    Translation would be Nice.
    He must have liked his record, he has been back for another.

    Nice job on the international sales. Well done Jan. At least you came in to help Meebo and that's what counts.

    I know what you mean delta , but what is wrong with accepting the fact that the buyer was happy and a sale was made...that is what we are all after , even if we can't speak the language....have a nice day folks............papa.

    When you read it in German, that is exactly the impression I got too.

    I used the google and the MSN one and translating must be a very hard business even for robots! Never quite makes sense. I was trying to translate a Swedish towel with a phrase on it, and got some dopey thing "santa enters the woods and eats a tree" or something. Buyer told me it said happy holidays. It takes a human!!

    I sometimes do literal translation of phrases for the fun of it. Especially colloquial expressions can be very nonsensical
