The following text has been translated automatically from German into English by AltaVista's free web translation service. You can use it to make your own experiments. Unfortunately, the original site is no longer available, and all the links have been deactivated. You can try Altavista's Babelfish instead. Or, more fun, go to the web page Lost In Translation with a dynamic link to Babelfish that returns translations from English in several languages and offers the retranslation in realtime. You can stay in the loop indefinitely. Or go back to Babel ...
