My Repentance

After my rant last week, I've decided to forgive relay for being so ineffective.  It has, after all, saved my bacon a number of times.  So instead of complaining about what it can't do, I'm going to share some of the funny relay blunders.

For example, today, I got a referral at work for someone struggling with an addiction.  The captioner wrote that so and so is "having an issue with ducks feet."  It should have been so and so is "having an issue with pornography."

Later, someone on the phone was talking about a location and instead of captioning the location as "Mt Mahogony" the captioner wrote "girls pretty."

So I guess my areas of expertise are expanding to working with ducks feet in girls pretty :)

So how does relay work? Is there some computer that translates, or a real person?
