It's about time

Finally, something worthwhile to do with my old textbooks -- send them to needy universities in Iraq!

I confess I'm a bit confused, though . . . do they really need textbooks written in English? Because if they do, well, I've got a whole bunch of marketing textbooks they can have . . .

Sending marketing textbooks? Now that'll get them to hate us.

English is good. I am not sure what the ratio is, but I know a good deal of the instruction is in english.

Even if they're not useful as textbooks, I'm sure they could be useful as library books (the sort of things students working on papers use as sources).

If they're fairly recent, I'm sure some enterprising young language students can make some extra cash translating them.

How about sending them unpurchased copies of "My Life"?

Or would that be considered tourture?

At least she is not sending her management text books. Japan, Inc., they do not need.

Just don't send them any books if you attended the Army War College.

Should be lots of people who have converted to something other than Islamofacism so lots of Qaran's should be available also.
