Thank you -- It's good to read this. ("It's not nice to fool Mother
Nature" -- and I don't much care for being fooled myself.) The suggestion
in the article that another translation of the papers, perhaps by the
papers themselves, is a good one, and quite important.
Perhaps there is something which CASI and/or members can do to help this
happen? Maybe a number of volunteers could be assembled to regularly
translate the bulk of the news items and upload them to a central
location? Perhaps electroniciraq / intefada or another group could help
with this?
If a centralized site (arabpress.org or similar?) could be established
they could offer e-mailings to the public, and more importantly to the
politicians.
