Hey Nicholas!

 NB> Sounds like you've been expanding your horizons lately!

Lately?  This particular expansion officially got it's start back in 2012 but it was earlier than that when I actually got it working ... utf-8 FTN echomail that is.  The Ænglisc taglines were just in case some anal moderator pulled an "English only" rules thingy on me.  As it turned out nobody touched it and it continues to survive in it's original state.

 NB> go ahead and install Windows, it doesn't bite.

Nor does it byte, or at least around here it doesn't.  To be quite honest I haven't seen a window's box in a couple decades now.  Most everyone and their dog is using Android over the last 20 years or so with the occasional Apple device rearing it's ugly head every so often.

 NB> through Google Translate

In this case that doesn't work given that Old English isn't supported by any translation method that I am aware of.

 NB> sent one back to you to see if you'd notice.

I saw it.  At first I thought you copied it from one of my messages.  For the record I don't believe there are any copyright issues with them given their age.  I believe the last official document written in Old English was bach in 1154.

Life is good,
Maurice
