[Dixielandjazz] Dixielandjazz Digest, Vol 125, Issue 5

[Marek Boym]

Sure thing, Jean Marc!
A friend - for some strange reason, as he speaks both Hebrew and English -
tried to send me a message in Polish.  I had to translate each word
separately int Hebrew to get an approximation of what he was trying to
say.  Those translations are worse than useless, as they often are
misleading!
Cheers
