Re: How to avoid the "I'm reading" voice

I'd agree with that but OK - it's a technical train manual and a relation is finding reading hard - read it for them.

Re: How to avoid the "I'm reading" voice

I can't find the post but very early on my membership I read a post in which it was suggested that instead of feeling like you were "performing" or reading aloud while the teacher and class were just waiting to giggle if you slipped up, you visualised reading to someone who was ill and cou...

Re: SOLO Galactic Patrol by E. E. Smith (version 2)-ans

Where can I go back in and update the summary? Just post a new one in the thread and I'll put it in the project database.

section 3 is OK. Anne
Their family trees would be interesting - everyone would be some degree of cousin to everyone else, pity there were not DNA studies then - it would be really interesting.

Re: Volunteer CD Covers! Working Thread
