Willard,

A while back, there was a call issued for repors on the professional use
of blogs [See Humanist 19.139 the trouble with tribbles]. I want to signal
one use that is particulary noteworthy -- it involves international
assistance.

The author of Thanks for Not Being a Zombie points readers to the
project of Khadim Al-Ali, a Ph.D. candidate from the Busra University
Iraq. Not only does the blog entry point to the project, the author's
web space also mirrors a copy of the questionnaire. See

Khadim's prjects involves Assessing Responses of Non-Arab English
Speakers to Arab / Iraqi Poetry Translated into English.
