You're right, my bad. But still, data stay in the buffer until someone tries to `.read()`. So, if you're being passed a stream that you dont know whether the first `readable` event has fired, you can try to actually read from it. If it returns null, then you wait for `readable`. On 03/25/13 22:42

That's not guaranteed to work. You're assuming that `stream.read()` will return the whole internal buffer, which is not documented anywhere. The right approach is to call `.read()` until it returns null. Something like that: function collectStream(stream, cb) { var bufs = [] function read()
