From what my internal translation routines* tell me, this is a /. like "news" site, not a bulletin bord/forum. This (http://www.translation-guide.com/free_online_translators.php?from=Danish&to=English) provided some feeble translation of 2 paragraphs from their registration page, and tells me that my own routines work better .
*I may not know a language, but I can usually tell a lot from the spatial orientation of content, and general grammatical structure. I can still recall the amazement of an ex-girlfriend of mine when I fixed her busted up copy of Winamp when it was in a borked Chinese layout, getting it into English mode without a single piece of legible text . OTOH, working on a professor's Chinese copy of Windows Me was an absolute breeze by comparison, though I had him do translation when troubleshooting a finer point of the system. Of course, I felt a bit weakened by using any copy of Windows Me, but sometimes you just have to do painful things to get a job done :-/.

Hahaha, WTG TFD.. So very punny indeed.. You know, it's kinda sad, but I think the abundance of silly puns that I miss most.. or at least, the lack of people telling me to shut up because I use them, heh
-------------------- I'm curious... About what, you ask? EVERYTHING!
