My experience translating Japanese blogs every day is that there is a definite divide between people who deal with computer languages (programmers, web developers, etc.) and people who deal in human languages (i.e. translators/interpreters). It can be pretty frustrating at times, like the reddit case Dan points out. Not sure what the solution is, but it's a topic that deserves more attention IMHO. Chris Hi Andrew,
