| What is that "Translate" button for, and how do I use it? |

| I'm just trying to figure it out. I don't see it change any text or anything, whether I highlight it or not. Thanks in advance! :-) |

| #11 OK, it sounds like it's not because I'm pushing the button wrong then. :-) Thanks! |

| #10 But then we really need you, badanov. And you do all sorts of abstruse things "under the hood", the brief explanations of which give me headaches. But I have an affinity for patois, which comment I will treasure well into senility. :-) |

| #9 I'm just glad the old hands haven't noticed they don't really need me since Fred's hip healed. Don't anybody mention it, 'k? Thanks! Don't be silly. Nobody needs me until they need someone to pound in the stake. |

| #8 The periwinkle snark has been a welcome addition, especially to the Bangla posts. You seem to have a certain affinity for the patois of that region. And you have really help shore up the one who has the pink highlight. |

| #6 I'm just hoping that Fred doesn't realize one day that he could "get a life!" Need my Rant! |

| #5 "It's Fixed that for ya', lotp. And my I say we can't be grateful enough for all the work y'all do, but particularly Fred. Just thinking about all the work he (and the mods) puts into the 'Burg makes me want to run screaming into the night. Maybe this is a good time to point out the the 'Burg community that the 15th (payday for many) is fast approaching and we need to flag a little moolah for Fred. Also, a donation ot the 'Burg makes a great Christmas gift. Just sayin'. |

| #4 Let me know when something breaks and I'll try to get it fixed within a reasonable time. And, yes, I know I have a punch list left over from last year's server switch... |

| #3 Fred moved the Burg to new technology a while back in response to spam and other attacks. Since he has a day job he couldn't move it all at once. It's probably not obvious from the outside just how much work goes into the Burg. Across all the mods, but especially on Fred's part, think in terms of 'hours every day'. |

| #2 It's deprecated. Lots of stuff on Rantburg has grown kinda moldy with age. RSS links don't work, My Burg doesn't work, and the link list hasn't been updated in forever, it has a lot of broken links. |

| #1 I think it only works with Internet Explorer...? It does nothing for me either, using Firefox. |
