That's fantastic. I've played around with translations before, but something that automates it.. Genius.

Edit: Centre-embedded grammar seems to produce good results. I started with "Dogs cats elephants eat carry hide." (that is an actual sentence, by the way. "Dogs hide" is a sentence. "Dogs cats eat" is a noun phrase. "Dogs cats eat hide" is a sentence. Expand from there to get the sentence I fed it.) and ended up with an infinite loop on variations of "For more information, if you are eating a dog or cat, you can hide the elephant."

=O I used to spend hours doing this on Babel Fish.
Just to 1up Sent's weird sentence, I tried Buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo buffalo buffalo Buffalo buffalo which came out as 'BAFFAROBAFFARO buffalo buffalo buffalo BAFFAROBAFFAROBAFFARO'
I think it's an Engrish machine =D

I tried the Buffalo sentence first. I thought the results of the one I posted were more amusing.

Without a doubt.

Hmm. I've never formed a full opinion on Stalin. And apparently, he killed more people than Hitler, erased evidence of killed people, and restricted people's rights, etc etc.

And then, apparently, for every person he killed, two survived; some believe that it is better to make those that deserve to suffer to suffer, and to not allow the rest of the population suffer for them. And turned around the economy.

I'm not very clear on him, nor am I sure if these facts are correct.

Who do you think Orwell was thinking of in Animal Farm and 1984? =P


Stalin became quite paranoid, especially of those close to him politically. And yeah, he was responsible for a lot of death; deportations of people to hostile environments, kulak executions, famines, etc.
Great guy.

Anyway, Ted Kennedy died.

Thought I'd throw that in here.

A bit late, eh?

Eh, yesterday, but I see your point.
Is out-of-country hosting expensive?
We just use godaddy for Caffeine.

A couple of days ago in our timezone.


Hosting elsewhere isn't more expensive than hosting in the US; it's just we'd have to host the forums ourselves, with associated costs, rather than having Zetaboards do it for free.

Oh.
Yeah, not cool.
Zetaboards says remotely hosted.
Where would that be?
