Finally, I overheard on the radio that a new product that is, in principle, another case of Life imitating the Simpsons. In 2003, a dog collar company will be making a device that will be attatched to a collar that will take the dog's barks and translate them into plain English. (In case you haven't seen the Simpsons Episode, it is "Brother can you Spare Two Dimes", which originaly aired in Season Three. In the show, Herb Powell, Homer's half-brother, invents a baby-translator that takes baby babble and turns it into English.) |
