Richard,

It's so true! I have translated several of the design articles for the TDi engines and will probably ask Alistair to post them as well. After a few runs through Babelfish, I find myself writing in long sentences with segregated nouns verbs and bonded adjectivals - while purported trying to compose in English. Nonetheless, I would point out to the list that the figures in the texts are in a universal language.

No, no one wants the facts.  :-(  The list just blew on past your?

post with no mention, except maybe one.  Who wants facts when they?

can post their opinions or speculations??
?

But thanks for the link!  I'm still laughing over the English?

version of the Summary for the Syncro article?

http://www.members.shaw.ca/ragnarhairybreeks/technical%20articles/syncro%20optimised/syncro1.html?

I swear, it must have been translated via babelfish from German to?

Italian to English...twice.?

I'm comforted by knowing that I don't have to provide any "destinate?

driver input" for my Syncro, which was a color in VW's palette of?

Transporters....?
