   If someone did it, would you be willing to take a look?   
   Like yours, mine is not an entirely hypothetical question:   
   I’ve translated about half of _Eobal_, simply for the   
   experience.  Once I’ve done the whole thing, I’ll need to go   
   back through it on a second pass, but I’d be willing to let   
   you see the initial version to see whether you thought that   
   it had any potential at all.  If not, I’d be a little   
   disappointed but not upset; I’ve never done anything like   
   this before.
