publish it and put it online to read, for free. Isn't that an Idea. Anyhow
if he had done the interviews in English it wouldn't be so hard to
translate them. Maybe just the interviews would be good, raw uneditted
source for many other books and online discussions. Stripped of the
artistic je n'sais quoi.

Speaking of, I was working at 1 Liberty Plaza last week and spent hour
looking into "the pit", the done built the concrete shell of the E train,
it very interesting the way it snake through the center of "the pit". I
spoke to the people who worked there on Sept 11. And they said agian it
was horrible, smoldering windows and all sorts of airborn firey
rubbish… The hairs on my neck stood up and I went back to my chair.
