..German _is_ ok, and we have http://babelfish.org/ et al.
On scanning the text, output to plain text or well formed *html,
using the ISO-8859-1 character set in both cases.

..to make well formed *html, get 'tidy' at http://w3.org/ and use it to 
clean up the commonly badly toasted output of commersial OCR etc SW.
Makes a better base for translation.  ;-)

..and we have clara and gocr too. 

..and, we _can_ ask the magazine to put it on the web too.
After all, we did fail to communicate FG's FDM and (I guess) 
networking features, and we'll fix those too.

  Scenarios always come in sets of three: 
  best case, worst case, and just in case.
