=================
>From here on forward, the number of words per page starts getting more
dense, so we will get fewer pages per chunk; i.e. pg 202-3 have 54 words
between them, and by p180-1, we have 83 words in 2 pages. I may have to
get more selective about adding other-language translation, so I need to
ask whether people are ever getting anything out of the French or
German. (I am presuming that the Spanish is helpful to Jorge,
especially for some of these really obscure words - never heard of
"brushwood" or "hussar" myself).
