Hi. I've tried to use the ABBYY PDF Transformer 3.0 to translate the interviews for Keith Johnson and Richard Fryer. However, I thought it could be done with the free program trial, but it proved unsuccessful. I'm sure our Spectral fans would love to view it in English. If there's anyone that could re-post them in English, that would be really appreciated. Thanks.

We have a number of friends from Holland, hoping they can help... This stuff is just so addictive, I am on my 15th hour of listening today, can't stop.

Well...I could but unfortunately I don't have the time. I tried the following: copying a part of the text and putting it through this translator: http://www.bing.com/translator/ . It isn't perfect but not awful either.
Hope this is of use to you,
Wim

Thanks Nirodha and TooCool4. I used Google Translate. It's not perfect, but I got the main points of the interview.

Hi Ack,
I'm sorry to call you out like this, but you are of course referring to your DMA-400's or what? Fifthteen hours seems like a lot of time to be listening to a translation program.
