When I originally started the book, I was planning on having 100+ 
chapters, each expanding on one idea. Some chapters would be multiple 
pages, other may have been half a page only. But then, after I had all 
the headings created, I looked at it and I realized that it would be 
better to group them into 4 big parts, and about six chapters in each 
part, ans some subsections in each chapter.

Now, I'm trying to take the 100+ original headings (ideas) and group them 
more logically. So yes, using the outline, I have to move some things 
around 30, 40, 50+ lines.

I should have started this as a mindmap... :)
