:::It's not a reference in the strict sense, but it does remind me of the Babelfish from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, in that perfect communication between different people had caused untold war and bloodshed. -Pennpenn [[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.162|108.162.250.162]] 06:08, 23 June 2015 (UTC) | :::It's not a reference in the strict sense, but it does remind me of the Babelfish from Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, in that perfect communication between different people had caused untold war and bloodshed. -Pennpenn [[Special:Contributions/108.162.250.162|108.162.250.162]] 06:08, 23 June 2015 (UTC) | ||
