German Thomas Covenant and SRD Fan Forum

Post by ravel »

Hi fellows,

I am a great fan of the Thomas Covenant Chronicles (i have read all 7 books and can't wait for the next 3) and made fan forum for the german people.

The address is www.schwelgenstein.de

Schwelgenstein ist the german translation of revelstone. I tried to register Kevinsblick.de (the german translation of kevinswatch) but the domain was already taken :evil:

It would be great if anyone of you german guys would visit my forum.

Thankyou, Ravel. I will check it out. I am teaching myself to speak, read and write German, so your site will be valuable.

(i mean besides the obvious tower of babel reference)
Douglas Adams, the Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy

BABEL FISH :

The Babel fish is small, yellow and leech-like, and probably the oddest thing in the Universe. It feeds on brainwave energy recieved not from its own carrier but from those around it, It absorbs all unconscious mental frequencies from this brainwave energy to nourish itself with. the practical upshot of this is that if you stick a Babel fish in your ear you can instantly understand anything said to you in any language.

Now it is such a bizarrely improbable coincidence that anhthing so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see as a final and clinching proof of the non-existence of God. The argument goes like this : "I refuse to prove that I exist", says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."

"But", says Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway isn't it? it could not have evolved by chance. it proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't. QED."

"Oh dear", says God, "I hadn't thought of that," and promptly vanishes in a puff of logic.

"Oh that was easy" says Man, and for an encore goes on to prove that black is white and gets himself killed on the next zebra crossing.

Meanwhile, the poor Babel fish, by effectively removing all barriers to communication between different races and cultures, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything else in the history of creation
