Ray Robison, who has major work on the Harmony Database translation project is going to be posting less on his eponymous website Ray Robison. The reason is one to celebrate rather than mourn: he is writing a book on the translations. Follow the link above and leave a comment in the comments section, to show your support for seeing the book reach print. http://rayrobison.typepad.com/ray_robison/2006/05/announcement.html
This is EXCELLENT news!!!! Wishes of GREAT SUCCESS to all of you on this historic project!
I'd buy the book!

As much as we'd all like to run the collective nose of the liberals into the dirt, I hope that the book is NOT a "nah, nah, nah" type of book.
If fact, I'd like to see a book on these translated documents from the perspective of that there has never been political issues, but rather a straightforward book revealing what has been learned from the prewar documents.
Of course, some juicy "sound bite" type chapter headings in BIG BOLD FONTS would be effective in that that is the only depth of reading that liberals partake in.
Anyways, Congrats all around on this effort!
I'll buy a copy or two.
That would be a excellent valued-added endeavor.
You could come out with book one, then do a companion DVD to rekindle interest and prompt a press release/media time etc, and get folks primed for book 2 ;^)
Good idea DFU! An intro/preface of truth vs lies/dis & misinformation accompnied by some select lines from the documents would be very enlightening for alot of people. It would also provide very good sound bite/text blurbs for promo spots and media coverage/press release.
It's not so much rubbing anyone's nose in it- it's telling the TRUTH so the public can see who's really been doing the misleading. People are woefully ignorant and need their eyes opened. Besides, these are the questions people have wanted answered.
Wonderful news! Whatever you title your book, please call it "Volume 1".
I'll buy many copies to give away.
You missed my point. The book should NOT spend time discussing liberals nor Democrats. That would be a waste of effort and not the point of the discovery contained in the documents.
By just the fact that the book WILL link al-Qaeda and Saddam is enough on its own... plus many more facts. The IDIOTIC idea that Saddam would NOT deal with Jihad terrorists because he is secular will be blown out of the water.
Let the facts of the prewar documents speak for themselves. Look at how effective the movie "United 93" is without trying to slap the face of one side or the other.
Excellent! I think you should just run the translations. Very little commentary needed.
I'll even make my in-laws read it.
Good idea guys.
Let the truth come out!
Not at all. Any document of importance I will post first on this great Free Republic.
I'm looking forward to the book, but I'm glad we'll continue getting the first look at the documents.
Congratulations to you for this opportunity!
Include a downloadable version you can purchase also! And (I think Avacado suggested this) have dem quotes for the names of the chapters, and then have the docs that show them to be lying or just wrong as the basis for that chapter. Just for fun. But yes, I'd read it (but y'all didn't really have to ask me that, did you?).
