german translation needed!

[treed2 at u.washington.edu (T. Reed)]

This article appears to be relevant to my MFA/Cruise question, but
automatic translation isn't doing to well with it:

http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=3E36C69D.17B3D395%40web.de&rnum=2&prev=/groups%3Fq%3D%2522321%2B907%2B344%2522%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg

If somebody who can read German well could explain it to me I'd really
appreciate it!

Thanks
