Mike, regarding goal #1, I've ordered a copy of vol 2 of the Spanish edition
of Vygotsky's collected works, but it will apparently take a month to
arrive. This is the volume with Thinking and Speech, and I was thinking that
one or more chapters from this would be good to discuss.

Con respeto a meta #1, he ordenado una copia de volumen 2 de los Obras
Colegidas de Vygotski en español, pero parece que no lo recibiré por una mes
o mas. Este volumen tiene Pensamiento y Habla, y estoy pensando que uno o
mas capítulos de este serán buen a discutir.
