Journal ed.han's Journal: babelfish rant

OK, i've used babelfish from time to time in the past and it's always been serviceable. but my word...

i work in a small NYC-based office, largely staffed by koreans, who exchange e-mail w/ the parent office in seoul. not being fully conversant in korean, i thought i might be able to rely on the fish to see me through.

i mean, i can see that it's plainly one of the options, to translate from korean into english.

so i pop in the text of an e-mail, and wham! instant aphasic rambling. i mean, it's worse than useless. gah!

[starts to pull hair out in frustration, then reconsiders upon seeing reflection of hairline.]

gah!
