I'm looking forward to any and all info he can pass on: it's
incredible how much must be going on over there, and how little I read
about it here.  This stuff is important.  Thank goodness for European
posters on mostly-American-English discussion forums.

I re-looked at his post and there were some points that were hard to
understand, but I think it was more the difficulty of the volume of
information he was trying to convey, than the English issue.  I doubt
Babelfish would be as good as his English.  I think it's more a matter
of trying to condense so much info down to an outline.  Just my guess.
I'm sure he can clarify one or two points if we ask.
