SC - Help wanted

[harper at idt.net]

I'm almost done with my revising, and will soon be sending the 
manuscript off to my gracious proofreader.  In addition, I am looking 
for other kinds of help.

1. I need a monoglot.  I need someone who has never studied 
Spanish (no, not even a class in high school in which they didn't 
pay attention) to take a look at my rough draft.  I am too close to 
this project to have any sense of how it will look to someone who 
does not know the original language, and has not been extensively 
working with other period Spanish texts.  Have I footnoted too 
much?  Too little?  Is my glossary listing obvious words and leaving 
out some toughies?  I could really use an outside perspective.  You 
need to be able to handle a 332k attachment in your email, and be 
able to read a Microsoft Word '97 file.

2.  I could use a HTML expert to help me web this thing, after the 
proofreading is done.  My skills are very limited, and I only have 
experience in using the homepages-for-dummies applications at 
Geocities and Tripod.  However, for various reasons, I want to put 
this baby on my (currently unused) IDT homepage.  This means 
having a prepared file that I can upload to my shell account.  
Cariadoc has kindly offered to do the HTML for me, but suggested 
that there might be someone on this list who is more experienced 
in sophisticated HTML techniques.  The document contains 243 
recipes, and currently runs to 73 pages.  (It may expand slightly, 
when I adjust the pagination.)  

Are there are any gentles out there who are willing and able to take 
on either task?  I can offer my eternal gratitude, and a chance to be 
one of the first ones on the block to see The Whole Thing.
