Can I just ask; what *are* you on about??

And what's it got to do with Satanism?

Whoever they are, I don't think they're english. I suspect this is a Babelfish type translation of something or other.
The other clue of course is the « Quotation » marks in the text... Try doing that on an standard QWERTY keyboard...

Um, welcome to h2g2 nameless researcher. I'm afriad tho', Peer Review isn't really the place for these sort of musings- you could try posting it as a journal entry perhaps. Meanwhile, could I suggest you click the 'remove', or the X if you're in Brunel skin- you'll find it next to 'researcher ID' on the peer review page.

Its definately a translation from something. The word diabolos is a clue. Diablo is a word of Latin origin and is used in Spannish for the Devil. Looks like the babel fish couldn't handle that word and kept the original.

Venus Diablo means *Devil Love* I believe. It's a Tura Satana song...
PQ - I know.

I admire articles like this. I couldn't write like this if I had a gun to my head.

It looks like a ransom note cut out of a newspaper with all the capitals in the wrong place like that. Maybe Mr/Mrs X cut and pasted from an online newspaper to ensure anonymity?

'Venus Diablo'
Wasn't that that Greek bird with no arms?

Whisky Posted Jan 17, 2003
Actually spent time thinking about the possibility of a feathered bird _having_ arms 
before realising what Jimster was on about
Need more coffee!

Can I suggest as well as having Speaker's Corner, we create another virtual place called Furious Nutter's Corner, with virtual bus shelters to keep them all warm and huge supplies of virtual cooking sherry to fuel the 'creative' impulses?
