I photocopied as much of it as I could afford and was only able to find one guy in the whole Foreign Languages department that had any idea what it said. He translated a couple pages before disappearing (nothing mysterious, he left the country -- though I suppose you could suggest he was compelled to leave for his own safety!) and I never found anyone else that could touch it.
