Yeah ... I decided to be romantic. Translated "I want to kiss you all over"
into French and emailed it to my wife.

She translated it back to English.

"Your hair looks like chicken socks".

Oh well.

And if you really want to expose the shortcomings of Babelfish try pasting
in some text (this posting would do nicely), let Babelfish translate it into
French, then get it to render it's own translation back into English.
Babelfish is great for a quick and free but very rough rendering into your
native language, but hopeless for anything more ambitious.
