I commented on this on FB because I was struck by comments from a number of language-bound minds, then thought you all might enjoy it. The art of translation---as practiced by Bren Cameron --- or others--- is NOT a straightforward equivalency which a machine could do...

She had some 200 spammers and asked help clearing the pile. I don't know what piece of nastiness was contained in that lot, but when I tried to clean up her list of members to her site, a category appeared that doesn't exist on my page, and when I tried to clear...
