There was a message on one of the DX lists about a ham sending an  
email to another ham in Russia using one of the free internet  
translation sites.  This drew several comments and I have attached  
one (names and calls deleted to protect the guilty):


That's interesting isn't it?  Language translation can get a little  
askew
sometimes.  A similar thing occured once when I was in QSO with a  
UA0.  We
were talking politics when I asked him his thoughts on "the Pakistani
position" to which his response was "We tried it last night, and we both
fell out of bed!"
