I have a site running Drupal 5.x and would like to upgrade it to 6.x. Problem: most of the nodes are Reviews using the Review Module http://drupal.org/project/review and in retrospect, I should've obviously just used CCK with a standard node. I'm not a coder and know little about php/MySQL. Is there a relatively simple/cheap way to take the title, taxonomy, body, and authoring info and clone the node into something more standard? I don't care about saving the review rating #.
I have several hundred nodes to convert this way and would really rather not do it by hand.

Maybe have a look at
Maybe have a look at http://drupal.org/project/migrate? If something like phpMyAdmin is available on your server then you may be able to examine the table structure used by the review module and thereby tell Migrate how to extract the data from it (i.e. including the rating). The other fields you mention are all standard Drupal core fields so copying them over should be easier, I would imagine.
