  14. Hi there,
  15.  
  16. I just want to let you know that the word `pico' exists in Spanish. The
  17. standard meaning is `beak', but in certain latin-american countries, like
  18. Chile, it means `dick' or `penis'.
  19.  
  20. I wonder if `emacs' means anything nasty in Chinese... Regards.
  21.
