I didn’t know you were interested. I had that info on the 13th. (pdf dated 10.7.07) But it’s more fun to watch you feel the joy of “discovery”.
We all had it a while ago, Jack.
Why did you not do one of your whiz-bang translations, since Der Bunkermeister was a tad busy?
Oh, wait, I know.
You were waiting for the Lone Marvin Pitts to copy it and post it to the Family Feud for you.
Sorry.
I forgot.

As I explained elsewhere, we’re in the middle of a kitchen installation and I do have priorities. Since it is “my” kitchen - yes, I do the cooking, baking etc. etc. most of the time - I’m making sure that “things” are to my liking.
“Ventilator Concerns” dropped right off the bottom of the list!

We all had it a while ago ....
“Ventlators”,“Der Bunkermeister”,“The Boys”,“Puffington” and “Family Feud” are all such a welcome relief from normal adult conversation.

Let’s not forget “Red Box Brigade”, “G wie Gummi”, “the clan”
And from the bottom dwellers- “morons”
Actually, based upon recent activities, it’s more “Red Brigade”.
Some were kind of hoping one of same would translate that so we could find one word and pick on it.
Right out of the book.
And tell me, expletive deleted, what exactly did anyone say that made any of you think anything in this was bashing?
You find a problem with the reference to the Lone Marvin Pitts copying said translations?
Really?
Well, good.
Now the whole world understand your sense of morals.

Jack,
No huddle, no haters, simply a matter of looking in the right place where “things” are published. But you knew that already, didn’t you!?!
Other than that, why not wait for “next week”???
Hey, wait a minute.
Here we have complaints about “Ventilators” being a put-down.
Yet, wasn’t it Jack hisself who translated (via Babelfish, one would think) a missive to the masses that came out “LGB Ventilators” instead of “LGB Fans”?
So, gee, we use the term the organization came up with and that’s bad…
Okay.
Argumentitive just to be argumentitive, Marvin and all.
I did pick up a neat tidbit, a definition, if you will.
Used by permission, by the way:
"That’s the character of a ventilator: They just forward the wind they are unable to make (no source, no energy, lack of intelligence and profound knowledge of the German language). "
Fitting.
And, direct from The Fatherland, no less.

Gawd, that would be fun to watch them squirm
Time Gentlemen!
Given that my German is quite poor, it is 25+ years since I studied any…
I am just glad that someone/anyone is getting the info out in accessible form (for me) as opposed to German! I will deal with any spin I notice latter!
I have to say the wild speculation is fun though…
Now just where are my toy trains, so that I can enjoy them with my son?
Geoff.
Do not adjust your mind,
There is a fault in reality.

Geez guys. One man states that there is news in the usual places and suddenly we have ventilators squirming around like a bunch of fire ants at a picnic. Get a life…!! Somewhere else.
Hey, Warren-
Right out of their own manual!
This is more fun that I’ve seen in a long time.
EVERY time there is actual news, it’s squirm time, then the discrediting starts.
Seen it in this thread already.
Just to deflect attention from the translation, no less.
Nobody has commented on the really interesting part of that release yet.
Just going to wait.
Maybe someone will actually read with comprehension rather than casting aspersions.
Got a pool going to see how long it takes.
Pool…You take credit cards…
You may get a phone call…:lol:
