<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>Hi all</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>I have recently joined the fundraiser =
team - for=20
the Netherlands. And as part of this task have just subscribed to this =
list. I=20
was hapy to see two messages of other editors asking for proofreading =
and other=20
things. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>I have read the new Jimmy appeal =
- as it said=20
'needs proofreading' I checked it and 'localized' it, and took out =
some=20
mistakes. </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>If anyone wants to hear why I changed =
the things=20
I did, I am happy to answer your questions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>I am still puzzled by the phrase "... =
and leave the=20
waste to others " in the original letter. I kept it in the Dutch version =
- even=20
though I don't know what Jimmy means. I would welcome responses to that=20
question. (In fact, without any explanation I am inclined to leave it =
out - it=20
is not my idea of a good persuasive text to leave in empty =
words.)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>As we want to start using it as soon as =
possible, I=20
would very much appreciate if someone could (proof)read it one more =
time.=20
</FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT size=3D2 face=3DArial>Thank you very much,</FONT></DIV>
