Say what? Nowhere, positively nowhere on my site do I say bupkus about translation services. I am positively boggled by this one. And SWAHILI? I mean, push comes to shove, we have a range of 2nd/3rd languages here, ranging from the usual for the USA (Spanish/French) to the less-so (Serbian, Russian and a few other bits and pieces of this and that) to babble along, passably, in an email--but translate a book? NO! No, I say.

Every time something really bizarre occurs, like this, I literally go stare at my site. I try to figure out what the hell happened. Where that idea would have come from.

Mind-blowing.

Now see, you're missing a business opportunity here, Hitch.

Look up translation services, find the one with the best reputation and highest costs in the business, and quote their price plus 30 or 40% for the annoyance factor.

Or, if you're really annoyed, a flat 200% of their quote.
