... everybody loves them: english manuals (or, for that, any language) that had been translated from the original, far east language, to another by either a person that doesn't seem to understand a word of what they are writing, or by someone who just fed the original to a translation program ... read some prime examples of what happened in China ... :) Link (german though, but funny translations in english!)
