From a reader:

The Die Welt article got me thinking about translation software. Here is what just three successive translations effected by Google will do:
Original: Jonah Goldberg is without doubt the most talented writer working in the American media today.
To German: Jonah Goldberg ist außen Zweifel der begabteste Verfasser, der heute in den amerikanischen Mitteln arbeitet.
German to French: Le Jonah montagne d’or est dehors un doute l’auteur le plus doué qui travaille aujourd’hui dans les moyens américains.
French to English: Jonah mountain of gold is a doubt outside the most gifted author who works today in average American.
Keep going, and you’ll end up with a Ralph Nader speech.
