We are looking for native speakers of Bemba and Zulu who are
currently residing in the U.S. or Canada, have had some experience
in editing in their native language, and have good facility with
English. If anyone can provide names, addresses, telephone numbers

Subject: Query: Anothotheus
Last fall, I posted the following message on FICINO, and had one very
good reply, suggesting that "Anothotheus" might be "Anathotheus", that
is, he who was born at Anathoth, i.e., Jeremiah. This certainly seems
like a possibility, but I wonder if there are any other ideas out
there? Your assistance will be acknowledged with gratitude!

Subject: HyperCard Poetry
About a month ago, someone requested information or contacts concerning
creative writing using HyperCard or similar means. I replied directly, but
did not have William Dickey's E-Mail address. If the person is still
interested, William Dickey's E-Mail address is WDICKEY@SFSUVAX.SFSU.EDU.
