I received my first Journal update last night , it was in spanish . 

So, I thought I'd make a post to mention (what has been mentioned before in other topics) again the resource of Babelfish.  This will almost translate into English what has been journaled.

I was happy to get an update! no matter what language.

how long has that been there, and I thought I was sharing a tip- instead I was just not reading everything.

Well, Henry, it's been there all along.    But you have to get an emailed journal to see it, and the journals have been a little sparce.  So a reminder wasn't out of order.
