Not too bad a translation except for the word " entrée " which I'm guessing was " Post " or " opinion " before the translation program mangled the sentence, but the meaning could be guessed at fairly easily. Wink Cool

Appreciate the effort. Cool

( Note: Entrée might actually be the correct word for a post but since I usually read only English software books for Dummies I am not familiar with the official French computer jargon ....... a lot of French people who are bilingual just learn the English jargon as most of the software is created in English anyway. Oh, and this sort of explains the 4000 posts as I can resist explaining stuff. Sad Laughing Out Loud ).

Cool! Only ~2300 more and you'll catch me at over 6300 (assuming I don't post anymore). Wink Nathan is over 7700. Exclamation

It is scary to think of much time we all spend on here, isn't it? Crazy...

Jean, you're the number 4 poster of all time on this site. Pretty nifty. At your current pace, you'll pass #3 at some point. You're the highest non-Moderator as well. Happy

Happy

Oh, you caught that one quick Jean Eek! Eek! Eek!

It makes me wonder just how many arms and armour aficionados around the world are sitting at their keyboards right now seriously trying to contain their laughter.

All-in-all, though: Glad to have you grace these forums, no matter what your title...
(please pardon this utterly last feeble attempt at a humorous jab)


PS; Was that Sir Postalot I (Roman numeral, the first)???

O.K. over 5000 posts I'm breaking my promise i.e can't wait for post 10,000 before going " WOUHOOOOOOOOOOOOO " AGAIN. Eek! Razz Laughing Out Loud

Oh, Patrick Kelly should also get a belated " WOUHOOOOOOOOOO " for being past the 5000 mark.

All I can say is that I can type faster with just two fingers than I could before I joined " myArmoury " in 2004. Razz Happy

( I wonder how high my typo and grammatical error " score " is after 5000 posts even with the use of spell checking and editing and re-editing my posts after I click on send ...... I usually only see my mistakes after I press send and thank God or " Nathan " that there is an (E) edit button. Razz ).

Congratulations Jean!

It would be truly frightening to add in all your PMs and emails as well! Eek!

I would like to thank you for all your kind words and helpful advice over the last few months. You are a gentleman and a scholar.

Peace Happy
