没用CAT翻译这么多确实很快。我最多一次也只是翻译了一万九千字，但是从早上8点起床一直翻译到半夜12点，中间吃饭时间很短，这也是用了TRADOS的，翻译专利文件，重复率应该有25%左右。打字手都打肿了。
翻译一篇一万九千字的专利，通常我的客户会主动给我两至三星期。当然，我实际只需五天左右。
如果客户给的 deadline 太紧，你应加收 rush fee。如果 deadline 超过合理期限，宁可不干。不给翻译充分时间的客户是愚蠢的客户，是跟他自己过不去。

| Wildfires in Texas | Sep 7, 2011 |

I wish we had some rain down here. It's been an unrelenting drought in Texas all year long.
Steve,
昨天我从 Santa Fe, NM 驾车回来，一进 Colorado，天就开始下雨。接近 Colorado Springs 时，更是遇到多年不遇的瓢泼大雨。很多人不敢继续开车，抛锚在路边。逆向25号高速公路上还发生几处车祸，造成严重堵车。在 Santa Fe 时，电视上也报导说德州多处发生野火。小儿子也来电话说，奥斯汀持续高温、干旱，导致多处大火，还烧掉几百栋房屋。他还看到家对面山上的一些住宅也着了火。浓烟滚滚，风又特别大，根本就无法救火。他还感到空气十分呛人。我一面开车一面就想，要是能把这瓢泼大雨下到德州，那该有多好。

Oh, yes. It's been a horrible drought in the entire state overall. Lately, we've also been facing a dire situation here in Austin.
Not only did Texas not benefit from the rain of Tropical Storm Lee because it headed east towards Mississippi, but the winds it created just whipped up the existing Texas wildfires. Numerous wildfires in the state have been burning for more than 300 days, and so far this year have destroyed more than 3.5 million acres. They say that is bigger than the State of Connecticut.
A wildfire extending for more than 24 miles in Bastrop is still not under control as of today. More than 500 homes in that area burned to the ground over the labor day weekend. Across the canyon from where your house is, 24 houses burned to the ground in the Steiner Ranch subdivision. Ouch!
Yesterday afternoon we suddenly had a power outage. Without any TV or Internet access, I had no idea what was going on. Later in the evening, I found out that there was a brush fire that started right in the neighborhood park. Fortunately, the firefighters had the fire under control in no time.
~*~*~*~*~*
p.s. Yueyin, FYI, the latest is that 24 homes were destroyed at Steiner Ranch, and additionally 34 homes were damaged. Also, there was another fire in the Spicewood/Pedernales Bend area, which is said to be 100% contained as of now. The # of homes burnt to the ground in Bastrop officially stands at 1386 as of Sept. 8th ...

Steve,
I believe the fire my son saw from our home is exactly the fire in Steiner Ranch. Steiner Ranch is also a very nice residence area. My son also mentioned the massive horrible fire in Bastrop. I hope those fires could be put out as soon as possible. It seems the fire at Steiner Ranch has already been put out.

Yueyin,
Indeed. The homes in the Steiner Ranch subdivision are upwards of $400,000. It's a beautiful place to live.
I looked at that subdivision when I first moved back to Austin. At the time, the houses were still in the $200,000 range. I nixed the location as an option because it was a little too far away from work.

| A beautiful area | Sep 8, 2011 |
Steve,
Yes, Steiner Ranch is indeed a beautiful place to live. You could get a wonderful view of the surrounding areas, even downtown Austin in the distance, on the highlands. Some homes over there could be worth well over one million. It is true that Austin has seen a big change in the housing market in the past two decades or so. Nowadays, it would be very difficult to find a single-family home for under $400,000 in the area near Steiner Ranch and Lake Travis.

Chris,
No, that's not what Yueyin and I were talking about. All it means is that particular area was attractive to buyers, and the homes in that subdivision appreciated in a short period of time.
If you don't have that kind of money, you don't have to buy there. There are plenty of other nice subdivisions around Austin that are much more affordable.

I believe when you guys say "水深火热", you're referring to the inflationary pressure people are feeling in their daily life.
Since the 2008 financial crisis, it's been nothing but deflationary as far as the U.S. housing market is concerned. There's been a persistent and severe housing glut caused by bad mortgage loans and foreclosures. It will still take years for the excess inventory to unwind.

| Too close for comfort | Jun 28, 2012 |
Yueyin,
Indeed these are the most destructive wildfires in Colorado's state history. I think one of the earlier ones started 2 or 3 weeks ago, somewhere close to Fort Collins. Another big one right now is near Colorado Springs, where 36,000 people had to be evacuated. From what I heard, yet another one is burning near Boulder. I hope it doesn't spread and affect you guys. In any event, stay safe.

Colorado has lots of forest parks and woodlands, and the mountain terrain doesn't help. The devastating wildfires are still raging out of control. It must be heartrending for those who lost their houses - I read that some of them are only finding out through real-time images of Google Earth. I also heard in the news that tomorrow Obama is going to CO to survey the damage.

| Flagstaff fire | Jun 29, 2012 |
Steve,
Thanks for your concern. We are all fine. My son’s home is far from the Flagstaff fire in Boulder and mine is even farther. My heart goes out to those who lost their homes.
