I get the feeling that something is wrong with the Academy website. Trying to access it this morning, I got this message...Jim

"It is sorry. Currently it is in the process of inspecting an academy scientific home page. The possibility of finishing an inspection inside quick time in order to be,"

At least according to Altavista translator (http://babelfish.altavista.com/).

Academy has now decided to put a English "translation" on the site:

"Be Under Repair

We would like to express our sincere apology for having been late in our recovery to ACADEMY Web site and Customer Service.
Thank you very much for your taking the time to visit us."

Quite honestly the Babel fish translation sounded better...

BTW, they have also put a referral link to Academy Europe ...
