Linda:
I can help you around in the spanish part (how many pages to be translated?
Also one of my best friends and she helps me with lots of stuff is Russian
and writes it perfect, She use to teach me Russian but I moved so I guess
Russian is canceled for me, but I can always talk her into it and she will
like it.
