I just want to sincerely thank you guys for finding that horrendous spam mash-up of my review. I'd never noticed that pictips.com site before, but it is grabbing all my blog posts and reconstituting them with gibberish, and this is quite maddening to see your own writing thrown through that blender. I've written the Whois contact for the site and asked them to remove anything they've grabbed from my blog (ok1000pentax.com), but I doubt I'm going to get a reply. They must have some sort of auto-harvester that does all this work for them while they go off and grab candy from babies. I can't imagine a human personally editing the sort of word salad they republish then going home to sleep peacefully at night. But weirder things are known to happen.

Oh, it's far to good to have happened accidentally. I sense a homage to Philip K. Dick, who in one of his novels (Galactic Pot Healer, perhaps) had protagonists deliberately trying to create this kind of mistranslation, although not on as monumental a scale. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
