I spent 1981 in Utah working on Japanese-English translation for a
commercial outfit. I was a bit hampered by the company's insistence
that I use the same routines they had already worked out for
English-French/French-English, but I was making good enough progress
that I'm sure by now, 25 years later, I'd be able to get "The fool will
probably do it" out of that!
