That would be good; I was thinking of offering, but this was your idea. Another way to do this would be to have a round-robin link to everyone's translation... but that would depend on everyone having their own page... so your offer is best, Irina. If this proves to be riotous fun, we could repeat it later on, and whoever starts it will be the Web host for the cycle! I'm eager to see how much it changes. Sally
