"I'm a Spanish-to-English translator, and I never do translations into Spanish, even though my Spanish is quite good, because the possibility for disaster is too great! "

I translated a manual for an industrial electric motor into Spanish during college. I can only imagine how many people died because of that translation :)

LOL! Somebody once asked me to translated a medical document - INTO Spanish. Talk about living dangerously! I declined the job - the guilt for all those deaths would have been too much for my conscience.
