Thanks for that. I must admit I was a little puzzled as to what the "in joke" was.
Cheers.

Ack! That's horrible. In my work I find translator software helpful for individual terms but totally useless for whole sentences. I always have to compose them myself afterwards. Guess we still have a long way to go before we can have C3PO interpreter/protocol droids.

This is a VERY addicting Site, you can watch your school marks drop a bit after finding this site, guaranteed!!! I am not much for lurking, I am more of the spammer type . . .

Wikipedia is actually quite extensive. From what I can say the Maths, Psychology, Philosophy articles are better than in Encarta or Britannica. Good job!
