Larry, thanks so much! If it gets too tedious (and it is a strange book), I would be comfortable with your just spot checking. Marty

Usually we like to keep recordings under an hour, but I believe the absolute limit is 72 minutes, but Jo could confirm this.
I've been told that is the maximum length that will fid on a standard CD, which has become somewhat of an obsolete technology, but, we LV will probably hang on to it and continue to make CD covers for every project.

Stein is certainly the master of prepositions! What is in, into, of, with . . . . seems really important, I guess. Does she know what is important in her?

PL OK

Under 74 is OK.

Thanks! If I have to, will adjust the sections to make sure I don't exceed the time limit. Yes, Stein's prepositions seem to matter a lot to her as well as the use of "then". She also isn't fond of punctuation. I have to impose my understanding of what makes sense.....
