I can still sight-translate! Wheee! My Latin's coming back fairly easily... still a few hitches here and there that I don't remember, but overall it's better than I'd hoped. Thanks Mr. Parsons!

If history doesn't pan out, maybe a career in translation isn't out of reach after all. I'll have a fair grasp of German by the time I leave tech, and then I'll be learning French as well in grad school, if not other languages. I've looked at some of the offerings, and it's enough to make me drool with anticipation: Old Norse, Anglo-Saxon, Old and Middle English... all right, perhaps not so useful in today's world, but fascinating nonetheless.
