2. He is reading it for one segment each night.
No estimate on how many weeks or months finishing will take.

5. When he's done, I will have all of them on my iPod.
Then, I'll ride my bike to the Mississippi River and sit on the levee and listen to the whole thing.

8. Just did a little calculation...
At the present rate, this will take 25 more weeks to complete.

9. Whoa! ... to quote BlackAdder:
"I'm anaspeptic, frasmotic, even compunctuous to have caused you such pericumbobulation." :D

12. You might want to change the track numbers from 01 to 001...
This way they wont be shuffled when someone loads them on their MP3 player..

10. Thanks!
Even though Mike is freaking me out, 1984 is such a good read, especially at this time in our country...
