FROM: "Ilya Bakaleynik"

Hello, dear Robert!
First, thank you very much for edit part of
my letters. I wish to inform you, that I at such age when it is just
necessary
to think about eternal and to learn English is all the same what to trust in
afterlife. Let's simplify this question. For me the most difficult, on
what I
spend a great lot of time is to pick up the necessary preposition (in,
on, at,
to, up, onto and so on) and where definite or indefinite article is
needed and
where it is not necessary. And I offer, if it will not complicate for
you, to
make editing in my text between lines by a pen or pencil, then copy the
edited text and send me as Reply. That's all.
Now about the main thing: I'm worried that with my departure will be
gone all
that I developed over my life. And these are
a large number of original ideas, technical solutions, discovered physical
phenomena and the like. I have a huge archive of 25 work journals with
descriptions of the experiments and their results, 20 notebooks with the
most
important technical ideas, and a large number of undeclared descriptions of
inventions, unsent articles, etc. For some reason I think this is important.
In addition, I have brought from Russia about
30-40 operable experimental devices - Gas-discharge Current Interruptions.
Whether you can advise, prompt me a way how to interest someone here in
America that all this has not gone to waste?
Sincerely,
Ilya
