Babel fish to strengthen my french for a year, and I've been familiar with humorous sci- fi novel THHGTTG. for years, (I also saw the film recently) But it took me this one long boring night to put the two and two together. I think it's a great name for a Langauge translating website. Thanks Technovelgy.com: for varifying this little neat fact with me ;)" (Beeart 7/19/2005 9:32:36 PM ) |
