aren't scientists silly?           :+)

look, greg, if you want a list of children's e-books,
or a list of "easy" e-books, or any kind of list of books,
just ask the distributed proofreaders people for the list...

they'll give you a long list of books, any kind of list you want,
and you won't have to do one little bit of fancy-ass statistics...

i'm serious, they can give a list with p.g. e-text numbers and
meaningful notes, and funny little stories, and _everything_...

much more vivid than your boring-ass statistics...         :+)
