Andres, when Roger first started working in Venezuala we bought a fancy-dancy translation program for our old 386 PC. I dutifully used it to write up our very first invoice. Faxed it to them while Rog was there. They all had a gay time laughing at the invoice I was so proud of; it seems some piece of broadcast equipment was translated into "fur coats" for which I was billing them!

Lepus Reks...wouldn't that be Minahsewtah? **BG**
