thank you for that, I wondered how columnized the text is because of the 
verses, and though a "chronological" bible, still the verses would be there, 
maybe just the books arranged in a chronological order. :) I haven't begun 
yet, still taking suggestions, all valuable, for sure.

I don't know. Usually Bibles do not scan very well. The verse numbers,
footnotes, etc. don't do well, and I wonder if two page mode would
complicate things even more. I would try it and see how it goes, but don't
plan on getting a good scan. If this isn't possible, you might want to get
help copying down the order in which the verses occur, and making that list
available for people who ask you for it.

I wonder if ... you're lonesome tonight? You know some one said the world's
a stage ...
Naugh, anyway y'all, I have a printed version of "the chronological bible,"
quite a huge work, and am wonderfing if it is, or ever was, on the wish
list? I am considering attempting the scan of it, but some advice is
welcome. It is one of those soft cover books, with phone-book-looking thin
pages, is definitely "broken in" by it's original reader, so how would you
experienced scanner people handle such a work? The thin pages make it likely
that during the turning of them, I'll get 2 instead of 1, so how would you
make sure only one page was turned consistantly? My scanner can handle 2
pages at a time, should I do it that way? It would cut in half the scanning
time, obviously, but would that introduce more problems than it would solve?
I did scan successfully "Jitterbug" that way, with very few initial errors,
so am inclined in that direction however, I will listen to any and all
advice. Any and all advice is welcome. I have an Epson 1650 scanner, K1000
v11.02, and elbow greace, (good thing eh), so am ready to take it on. What
preparations would you have, and all other mechanations you can describe of
what you would do to begin will be welcome. I've actually been scanning,
(for my own use) since 1992, but that doesn't mean I've ever really
attempted such an important work before, so again, any and all advice is
welcome.

So now, the stage is bare, and I'm standing there, with emptiness all
around, and ...
naugh, too weird,    however my mind does go down rabit trails like that, at
least my wife, Karen, tells me that all the time. :)

Thank you!
