Once I get the book, it only takes a few minutes to despine it,scan it and start the OCR program. It's validating it later that can take a long time. I can't validate it, since I'm busy with the New York Times bestsellers. Do you want me to put it on the download list with HOLD FOR ESTIN in the title so you can validate it?
By the way, you do realize that I'm going to kill the book,right? There's an industrial-strength chopper in the office, so I despine the book and put it in the scanner, which zips through each separate page at the rate of about 100 a minute. If you don't want your book to be despined, please don't send it to me. I basically destroy the book (it took me a LONG time to stop feeling guilty about killing books :-))

Hi all,
I managed to sneak a few books into the download queue, betweenwaves of New York Times bestsellers. 12 bestsellers just showed up today, so I'm starting to work on them. In the meantime, here for your validating pleasure are:The Glitter Dome by Joseph Wambaugh Touch the Devil by Jack Higgins The Seventh Secret by Irving Wallace The Fifth Angel by David Wiltse Master of the Game by Sidney Sheldon Baby Love by Joyce Maynard Caravan to Vaccares by Alistair MacLean Devilseed by Frank Yerby Fletch Won by Gregory McDonald Angel of Light by Joyce Carol Oates Memories of Another Day by Harold Robbins The Body Has a Head by Gustav Eckstein Conan the Avenger by L. Sprague de Camp and others Conan of the Isles by L. Sprague de Camp and Lin Carter A Sight for Sore Eyes by Ruth Rendell Deep Fire Rising by Jack Du Brul In the Frame by Dick Francis Break In by Dick Francis
I have 4 other Dick Francis books to process but it'll be a fewweeks before I get to them - sorry! As always, if you start validating any of the above books and find some problems, please email me and I'll check the book for what the words should be.
Thanks! Carrie
