As I see it, some very good threads started up:
1. The portrayal of women.
I appreciated David B's "autumnal" theme, and Diana's excellent post on
the ubiquity of negative protrayals of women. Perhaps there's more
mileage in this thread.

2. Orion: seems to have petered out for now, but surely there's more to
say.

3. VERY slow reading starting from the first sentence. Andreas is doing
a yeomen job keeping this going all on his own.

I will be happy to see any of these threads continuing and will make my
own contributions when I have something worth saying.

I think that we should not move on until people stop posting relevant
stuff. The irrelevant stuff is stopped by Keith anyway (right Keith?).

So instead of voting to move on, let's "vote" by not posting. Let's say
that we give each Chapter a minimum of 2 weeks and then extend it until
the posts dry up e.g. for 3 days.

  Keith,

"We're more than half way through the first week. How are we doing? Should
we switch to Chapter 2 on Sunday as planned? Should we extend Chapter 1 for
another week? What do we need to do differently? What should stay the same?"

I see no reason not to move on to chapter 2 this Sunday... Personally, I'm
eager to get past chapter 3 (where the discussion in the MF group left
off...)  As for the dual conversations... Why stifle discussion about the
"method" we're developing...?  I'm sure it will continue to evolve as long
as we keep reading and I assume it will die out naturally when it is no
longer necessary.
Who knows if this turns out well... maybe the LS could read ZMM
together?
