Hello Non-English Speaking Readers

As I've noticed there are a few folks following this site who most likely aren't reading in their native language, I added a tool on the bottom of the right column that will allow you some may wish to use to easily have Google translate the page to other languages. I hope someone finds this useful... Thanks for reading!

Excellent idea. I need to follow suit.

Seriously?
As one of those this is aimed at I find this kind of offensive. You're not writing Welsh, you know?

Hi man, great idea. I've no problems with english, but since I have a blog in italian and contents that I would like to share, I will definitely adopt your gadget!

@Socrates: your not the only non-english follower of this blog on the net, so if you feel offended you can simply ignore the gadget -.-''

@Robert: My apologies. As you know, many of us native English speakers (particularly Americans such as myself) struggle with the subtleties of the language. In retrospect, I see that my clumsily worded original post should have been more explicit that the use of the translation tool here was on a strictly voluntary basis. I hope this has clarified my original intent...

Seriously though, I occasionally read rpg blogs in a number of other languages and found Google's translation has been helpful at times. I didn't think it that big of a leap that others might also.

@Il Male™: Looking forward to it! ;)

Damn! And I thought I HAD to read your blog via Google translator, as English wasn't my native language. ;-)

He was six-foot-four and full of muscles
I said, "Do you speak-a my language?"
He just smiled and gave me a vegemite sandwich......
