Answer 1

Hello,

This site was probably created by Christopher with the help from our great admins team

Answer 2

It is a little known fact that some ancient religious texts written in Aramaic said:

"And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made. And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made. And he said: Let there be Span¡shD!ct so that we can amuse ourselves in our day of rest: : and it was so."

However, the Greek translators working on this text, had a penchant for drawing things on the dirt with sticks, and writing in parchment and what not, and weren't really into computers - so they had not idea what this Span¡shD!ct thing was and they dismissed the whole thing as "Oh brother, these Aramaeans and their cannabis-stuffed baklavas. Sheesh! I'm just gonna leave that weird coprava out of there", and so the distant origin of this peculiar place was nearly lost in time and history.

How the original text was re-discovered by a keen a tireless researcher, and how his extraordinary find was covered up and hushed by political interests, is a great tale of adventure, thrills and conspiracy, waiting for the right time to be told.

Muy gracioso! :) - 001a2987, Apr 17, 2011

I would have thought it was linked to the Tower of Babel.. As Jesus provided the ransom for sin, so SpanishDict provides relief for the confusion of a multitude of languages. - 0074b507, Apr 18, 2011

According to Beatrice it was Al Gore who wrote these things. Surely that predates Babel by a long shot. - Gekkosan, Apr 18, 2011

Could it have been Martha and Jeremy? In the "About" section they are listed as "co-founders".

What, "I love Lucy" - not "The Lucille Ball Show"?? you're not old, then, Pesta, you're a living fossil! I think Charlie Chaplin grew up watching "I Love Lucy"!!! (Just kidding - but yeah, that was a looooong time ago!) - Gekkosan, Apr 17, 2011

Answer 5

Al Gore started it.

Ah-hah! Likely he's the one that wrote the tablet's I'm referring to in my post! :) - Gekkosan, Apr 17, 2011
