Re: new relay

Having only one relay will make the end result much more interesting and for
those of us that need to work on our langs a little further before we're ready
the extra time will be great.  For those people with two languages have one of
your langs very early and the other late, the time inbetween would give you
time to forget what you translated so that the next entry you get will look
fresh.  I don't see why there is a limit to only one lang anyway, the point is
not to guess the material but take what your given and translate it the best
you can into the concepts of your lang. Isn't this correct?

Ultimately, this will make a great summer project.
