Linda, If you can e-mail me a copy of the 'conversation'
in French I'll translate it for you. I was raised in France in my youth so it is
almost a mother tongue.

Subject: [iris-photos] OT-HUMOR: Hot
Line
Oh brother - I went googling to see if I could find a
source of HOT LINE
and ran across a mention of it on a French
website. Got distracted by a
discussion on that website about dark
tops, couldn't quite figure out
what they were saying, so popped it into
altavista's babel fish, which
gave me a garbled translation that was pretty
much unintelligible, but
thought I would share my chuckle for the afternoon
- the famous iris
RIPPLING WATERS came out as RIPPLING TOILETS, which,
according to the
garbled translation, "adds a calling card"....
Back
to digging spaces for new irises....
