Re: More translations?

Dear Hermine,

DON'T PANIC!

It was all just some silly rumor that was going around because we all know
there is no other Sansevierias forum and no other could even compare.

Do I hear a second on that? A third?......... All in favor?

I will try to post that link one more time to see if it will work.

BTW, here is a link to the on-line version of the Hitchhiker's Guide to the
Galaxy.

well, i find it odd that it includes actual words in German when
translating FROM German into English. it is very flawed.

I found an empty page when i tried to go there. i actually do speak french.
i do not know of any hoo-hah concerning this issue, and could translate
this if i could find it.

I happen to have a towel handy, i was dusting the monitor.
