Patrick you should have asked me instead of going to all that trouble. I have copies of all the relevant papers including Acta Eruditorum and its translations. What bits do you want translated?

: Hi all;
: I was able to get access to a copy of Acta Eruditorum, and for some reason I thought it would be in German. Latin, yikes! Can anyone recommend a good Latin-English translator, hopefully free. I don't want to waste time doing what has already been done but I thought it may provide some extra insight to check the original texts. I currently have quotes from 1715, 1717 and 1718 that mention 'perpetui mobilis'. I am out of luck with Babel Fish Translator.
: thanks--Patrick
