I like the idea of the mass throwing out of trousers -- the kind of action the gals did years ago with their brassieres -- and would like to take part, but :
1 : Strasbourg is too far away.
2 : I have no trousers to throw out !

there are several add-ons for firefox that will translate too ... i use 'translate this' ... this add-on uses google translate, when on a page that you need to translate just press a couple of keys on the keyboard (default is ctrl+alt+t but this can be changed) and the translated version of the page appears in a new tab

Thanks Reaper_Man - i have now downloaded a translator add-on/app to Firefox. It comes up with a red "T" in the menu bar and with one click, the page is translated!

Just never, I repeat never, use that to translate anything important from English to Finnish. The outcome in Finnish is usually something totally hilarious and often not understandable to a native Finnish speaker. The same goes to all automatic translators I have seen so far.
