Given the thieving proclivity of the organization, there are far better projects available than German Russian studies. Other than a revision of the Kind village history, all other German Russian projects I have been involved in are ended. My property is, however, my property. Copyright expertise? Too bad no expertise was in evidence when at least $7,000 of your dues money was spent a few years ago to translate the Kontora cases from Russian into English, only to have the copyright holder forbid publication. Now a manuscript copy gathers dust in Lincoln. Expertise indeed. See you in court. Bill Pickelhaupt Sent from my HTC Inspire(tm) 4G on AT&T
