The Babel Fish is small, yellow, and simultaneously translates from one
spoken language to another.
When inserted into the ear, its nutrition processes convert sound waves
into brain waves, neatly crossing the language divide between any
species you should happen to meet whilst travelling in space.
Some say that the evolution of the Babel fish could not have been
accidental, and hence that it proves the non-existence of God.
Arthur Dent, a surviving Earthling, commented only 'Eurgh!' when first
inserting the fish into his ear canal. It did, however, enable him to
understand Vogon Poetry - not, necessarily, a good thing...

I just got a very nice Libelle from John Derstine, but the
instructions are in German. Can someone point me to a place to
have the instructions converted to English? I can send a scan
or copy of the text if you like. TIA gv
