Roger, you should have labeled this your "Snap"! It needs such
immortalizing, esp point 5: "...and why you think Little Dorrit is now
remembered as LiHle Oamit." HA!!

Ah, ah. I have a solution (patent pending) for you Patrick. You could
become the first brain-augmented silver surfer!
1. Build a super-fast mechanical page turner and ocr-scanner: as the
pages are turned, scans are taken.
2. Connect brain to device in 1 via high-speed network cables. The
socket-points should be in the back of the neck for convenience. Also,
far easier for surgeons to cut access path to brain.
3. Sit back and relax, watch TV, have a poached egg, whilst your whole
library - and more ! - is assimilated into your brain.
4. Spend the next 10 years figuring out what the OCR scanner got wrong
and why you think Little Dorrit is now remembered as LiHle Oamit.
5. ...
6. Profit!!!
You could even star in your own Manga movie!
