Many of us who spend more time in front of a computer screen then in front of the TV find that we start taking short cuts when talking about what the computer is doing and what is inside (software and hardware).  Instead of just TV for television, we start talking about CRT (Cathode Ray Tube) and Kilobytes (thousands of pieces of information).  Well, now that you have found a way to save all that time, why don’t you use it to solve  this month’s puzzle.  (If you need help, check out www.geocities.com/ikind_babel/babel/babel.html#A)
