Our russian friends were so charmed by our ebook "Hand Shadows to Be Thrown upon the Wall by Henry Bursill" http://www.gutenberg.net/etext/12962 that they downloaded it 4000 times. Somebody who reads Russian can go to http://www.dirty.ru/comments/16939 and tell us why. Its interesting to see how articles wander from one blog to the next. These are just some of them who carry the "Hand Shadow" story. http://www.di-links.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=419 http://www.robcruickshank.net/2004_09_01_archive.html#109495485107159780 http://exclamationmark.typepad.com/ http://www.wherethreadscomeloose.com/links.html http://www.monkeyfilter.com/ -- Marcello Perathoner webmaster@gutenberg.net

According to an online Russian-English translator, some of the comments as follows: "Fine completely. I have tried - and look, it has turned out. People in 1859 fingers were able to bend!" "Dream of my childhood. A class post! Doubtless [+] for today." "All represent animals. And where shadow a tractor, nuclear reactors and supersonic fighters? But in fact 1859..." "and shadow economy ." "And here still interestingly collective image of shadow designs."

Now if there was some way we could bridge the language barrier and recruit a few of these Russian friends to help add material in their native language to PG.... Could we do that using hand shadows on the wall? Andrew
