Thanks, jerry.
         Here's a new version of the Chavez UN talk sent by a
translator-friend, who writes:

>With all due respect to whoever did the translation of Chavez'
>speech at the UN that has been going around, I am here sending my
>translation of the actual transcription of his speech.
>
>The translation that is going around, while it more or less gets the
>gist of what Chavez said, it has meany errors, looses much meaning,
>in many places is totally in accurate and completely discards
>Chavez' speaking style.
>
>So, in the sake of keeping a faithful record of Chavez'
>communications, I offer this translation which will also be posted
>on <http://www.chavezinenglish.org/>www.chavezinenglish.org
