, the
group is dead anyway. Well, twitching.
Why is that? There's tons of traffic at proz, but the thought that
someone else has the right to edit my scribblings makes me feel uneasy.
I don't know what's happened to usenet. Even cheerslove seems to have
lost its, well, whatever it used to have.

ProZ has rules as to what is allowed and not allowed in posts. If people
don't abide with these rules, their posts get edited or not published at
all. Of course, like with all rules, there are sometimes disagreements as
to whether a supposed violation is actually a violation.

e-mail in From-field is wrong, real e-mail is:
jw point van point dormolen on xs4all point nl
(change point into dot, on into at)

I think you'll find that what this group needs is some posts.
I'm studying to be a translator, but having seen technical (legal)
translation jobs advertised at 4.5 eurocents per word, I'm considering
prostitution instead.
Come to think of it, while prostitution is referred to euphemistically
in French as "le plus vieux métier du monde" (I don't know whether one
says that too in other languages too), I reckon translation must also
be a pretty old activity.

Yes, in Dutch it's called 'het oudste beroep ter wereld' too.

I left a negative review of a book and it got rejected for being too
strong. I suggested that the only way this book could have got onto
"recommended" lists, is if someone had an "interest" in promoting it. |

Yes, but I doubt you'd like it, unless you're a mattress-muncher ;-)
LOL! That should stimulate traffic! They'll all want an explanation!

I would appreciate an explanation of the expression.
Is there a new furniture based set of expressions? (like
couch-potato) 
Thank you.

Clue: It started out as pillow-biter and evolved into various other
"flavours". |
