Hello, ciao, bonjour, hola, γειάσου, hallo, здравствулте, Qa'pla, Shorah.<br>(I speak none of these languages but the first. Bonus points (redeemable nowhere) for anyone who can guess each language. Especially the last two.)<br><br>I am (obiously) new to these boards. No need to prepare me for insanity, for I have already crossed that threshold. And if anyone has a computer question, feel free to ask. I am a computer geek and (self-proclaimed) HTML guru.<br><br>That said, I leave you with a cryptogram.<br>GUBVGRSVUBFARZVZNPGAABPZGPBNQFHVJHSGFGYGUEGHGQGNVFREBVGGPZAROSBR.<br><span style='font-size:4pt;line-height:100%'>(ROT13)</span>
