  1. Nothing whatsoever to do with cycling, but I know there are some
    knowledgeable people on this NG, so I thought I'd borrow the vast pool of
    intellect available on tap here ;-)

    I wonder if anyone can identify the language in this radio sound clip
    someone sent me? TIA

    I have a feeling that Simon gave that title to the file himself one of
    the most famous programmes on a "number station"[1] is "The Lincolnshire
    poacher" perhaps he uses poacher as an unidentified radio transmission.

    [1] "A number station" is ones which seem to transmit collections of
    numbers, no one seems to know if they are codes, place holders for coded
    messages or what.A Google search for "lincolnshire poacher" "number
    stations" :-

    http://www.google.com/search?q=%22lincolnshire%20poacher%22%20%22number%20station%22
    or if that breaks

    Sounds like a tonal language. Vietnamese? A Chinese? Any other far
    eastern language?

    Poacher is the nickname of the guy in Russia who sent me it. I wanted him to
    get the credit for the clip.

    Its sounds to me almost certainly a South East Asian language, possibly
    Thai, but I couldn't differentiate it for sure from other countries in
    that region such as Myanmar or Vietnam.

    Thanks Tony. I work with some people from SE Asia, so I 'll ask them.

    Stop press: This has come in from soc.culture.china

    Quoted message said:

    It was a very old language. It is similar to language of Chinese Monk.
    However, the source of voice seems from Europe. It talked about little
    thing of India and financial ministery of EU in Europe. There was no
    politic in the message. It was financial business news. The message was
    too short to get rich from it.

    Very strange!
