Interesting, but loooooooooooong. Too bad we can't include the illustrations - hope that isn't too confusing.

Hi again,

Quick update: I am going to submit my recording (#26, The Immigrant in the Library) by the end of this month. My sincere apologies for the ridiculous delay, that is not how I usually do things.

This year has just been insanely busy for me.

No response in over a week from reader of John Locke work; section 14 now open again.

Yes. This puts all of Stowe's Mayflower and Palmetto Leaves sketches in good perspective. I don't know if they are in my local library, but now we've got them in OUR LIBRARY! And I am proud of that (and of course everything else LV adds to the internet library). This essay has made me appreciate libraries much more, as democratic institutions and as the premier "educational extension for life".

I uploaded Section 3 again as I had not done the intro properly. Please use this latest version to PL. Thanks.

I would like to claim "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Ch 1, by John Locke", if at all possible. Thank you!
