Machine Translation bites the big one!!

You are much better off to just use an on-line dictionary for the kanji that you don't understand.

Better yet, Jim Breen has a great "breakdown" tool that only translates the kanji and katakana using EDICT.

You have a much better comprehension of the original meaning than using crappy MT.
