I noticed a full page advertisement recruiting for the National
security agency in the American Translators Association bulletin.
Why would the NSA want language types?  I thought they did alot
number-crunching and your average translator has had little or
no math background.  Also, don't they have a whole much of
Defense Language School types who have been drilled in every 
language imaginable?  Is the NSA just fishing?  Are they desparate
for talent or what?
Any comments?
