>>I remember reading about the filming of a movie, which had some phrases in an African language - Swahili, I think it was. Well, directors at that time didn't much care about the content of foreign-language texts, and somebody was hired to come running (acting as a messenger) and deliver some message - any message, as long as it sounded urgent or something. Which he did.

>>When the movie was shown in Africa, it got some good laughs - because the actor had said, in Swahili: "It is a disgrace, how little money I get for this role."

>funny!

Another topic; I am a little curious: What kind of software development did you do 33 years ago? Or is that a typo? (Information from your account setup.)
