Hey! I do that too. I've kept a list of every book I've read since September of 1982. It is something that I picked up from my mother who is a compulsive list keeper. She's kept a list of everything she's read for about 40 years. I think I've finished everything I've started except for the second book Piers Anthony's "Incarnations of Immortality" series. The one about Time. (Have I mentioned how much I hate time paradox stories? The book seemed completely incomprehensible and I gave up. The other that I started and gave up on was "Methusalah's Children" by Heinlein. I hadn't read any of the Future History stories and it made no sense. Once I read "The Past Through Tomorrow" I picked it up again and this time throughly enjoyed it. I'm pretty sure that's about it! - jmh _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
