Hi John! Still reading the book - which is wonderful - thought I'd read it through and then return to the first part and look at it in more detail. Am about three quarters through; its very densely written and deserves a slower read than some. With Easter weekend looming large, reading time is at a premium - perhaps we could start serious discussion say on Monday? although I will be delighted to read other comments posted before then I probably won't be prepared to join in until then.
