If any of you are inspired to translate the "We are the New Civilization"
text I did recently into other languages, feel free to volunteer. Javier
Cosp in Paraguay did a Spanish version, and I'm working on a Danish version.
The English one is at http://www.worldtrans.org/ncn/weare.html
and the Spanish at http://www.worldtrans.org/ncn/weare-sp.html
Just to warn you, translating a text like that isn't necessarily
straightforward, both capturing the meaning and making it sound good in the
target language. I realized the difficulty when I started putting it into
Danish, which is after all my native tongue.
If nothing else, I would really appreciate having just the phrase "We are
the New Civilization" in as many languages as possible.

Well, NCNers... the Traveller's Aide Society is at a great start of
22...
If you sent a message to mjohnson@america.net and it bounced back
"undeliverable", I apologize. I am a programmer and was writing a
custom-client protocol, and crashed my ISP (oops..) they graciously removed
my account. (I'm lucky they didn't do more.)
At any rate, my new account is
please send any new information, want-to-joins, etc to that address.
Also, for anyone interested I have found 10 cents a minute (U.S.) calling
cards, and have seen some new pre-paid fuel cards as well. Still looking
into airfare and similar type discounts.
