Even after a Google translate it doesn't seem to have much to do with birds....lions yes, just not birds!

Lorem Ipsum... is dummy text used by desktop publishers and website publishers to fill in areas that will eventually contain real copy. Looks like this is a new site created from a template and they are yet to replace much of the dummy text.

...except that the 'Lorem ipsum' article on the home page is dated 1st April 2010.
If you follow the link to the forum, you get a para of English and then the same 2 paras of 'Lorem ipsum'.

According to google
http://www.google.com.au/search?q=Lorem ... 00&bih=708" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
So they are taking a bit of time replacing the text if the date on it was April 2010

I understand the world spins a little slower on the other side of the Tasman, but eventually they catch up!
