Oh no the Tower of Babel!

While on these trips abroad to client sites, lack of a common language is often a boon. It allows you to converse with your own folks about things you may not want the others to understand for whatever reasons - confidentiality, privacy etc.
Alas mere scientists are not so sensitive to social situations. So here we are. It seems these pesky computers are now creating the Tower of Babel. What it does is that it hears a word, figures out the language somehow and then translate it into another language. While UN jaw-jaws can do with it, business love it during interviews, the poor developer with a geographically sundered sweetheart on phone and pesky client on next table cannot but shudder with horror!
Thats the problem with technology. It makes life better and takes the charm away.
