| Sorry, Bob, but Jan was right: still life = Stilleben. Sometimes,
| Babelfish translates word for word and it gives some funny effects...
| BTW, still life in other languages:
| 1. German : das Stilleben
| 2. Spanish : el bodegon or la naturaleza muerta
| 3. French : la nature morte

Hmmm, well the German one is closest in the Babelfish.  The other two are far
too fatalistic about what "still" means  :-)
