Oh! Mike A has never needed my help around here!
And I don't think even Unicode will work to express any Chinese.
Quietsch, is there a whole separate and parallel German universe up here on h2g2?

...if you have the appropiate browser plugins, you can read this! [Ja ne, Ja ne zai we san, or something like that. but it's japanese...]
yeah, kind of...but we are much to less to form a village, far away from a universe - but we have a bar by now, and thats a good start!

An all German bar? Cool
I want to meet some Swedish researchers. Anyone here know any Swedish?
Hey, Queitsch, I've got a question that's been nagging me for a fair bit.
Is it right for me to assume that German keyboards have keys for all the umlauts and stuff? If I want to use ümläüts then I have to bring up a special table. So, German keiboards would be bigger than English keyboards, yeah?

"but we are much to less to form a village" -- you mean, I think, "we are far too few to form a village" ... English can be terribly vague compared to German, nicht wahr?
Your Japanese came up as a neat row of little boxes -- there's a plug-in I need before I can read it.
Can we have the URL to the bar? I'll lurk tonight and see if I can understand anything.
Cheers
Lil

Actually, Quetisch's English made oerfect sense to me...I thought he'd got it spot-on correct. Guess there's Queen's English and then there's Teenage English LOL

I've noticed a couple of Germans using American spelling...to me, that is blasphemy and defecation of the English language. Cool, eh?
Went to the German place, and lucky me saw the link to Babel Fish translator. Unlucky me, it doesn't translate English to Swedish
Thanks for info Queirsch
