​Encyclopedia Britannica and The Great Books       Gateway                     Great Books

One of my hobbies is reading the Encyclopedia Britannica from cover to cover.
You might ask why? There are several answers:
1) Always wanted to.
2) Few people have ever competed the task.
3) It helps me see beyond myself and my time.
4) It is a small record of the things of God or not of God
5) I try to learn something new every day.

Now I have developed many different methods to help with this task. Generally I do not just sit down and open the book, sometimes I do but most of time I use the computer version and have the computer read the article or even I can send it to my Kindle and let it read it to me.
I have developed software to make collection as fast as possible. I also use textaloud and goggle earth as needed.

Another goal is to read the
Great Books of the Western World.
It's about a ten year project so I better get going!
