It’s not that hard. Start with a common list of what STAIRS called “stop words” that are never indexed: and, or, I, etc. (there should be lists of these around) Then run the text and see what’s left. You can probably get away with two more passes or so, eliminating more words each time. If you want to list the PRIMARY occurrence first, instead of the first one, that’s going to take a lot more work. There are probably programs available, so all you have to do is plug in words to omit/index. I’m not sure but that most word processors have an index function. -- Pete

Having done some indexing I can tell you that will get you an index-like thing, but not one that will make readers happy. I suppose that with e-books the bulk of junk entries doesn't matter so much but of course they are usually searchable so who needs a mechanical index? -- Regards, John Levine, johnl@taugh.com, Primary Perpetrator of "The Internet for Dummies", Please consider the environment before reading this e-mail. https://jl.ly

I'm still waffling over the 30 boxes of books out in the repurposed shipping container behind the barn. For the time being, I have room to keep them and no pressing need for the space they take up. My old dream of a wood panelled library (with library ladder) has been overcome by the convenience of my Kobo reader. > Like the works of Fritz >Leiber and Edgar Pangborn, and Gunnel Vallquist's Proust translation, >and Bertil Malmborg's translation of "Auf den Marmorklippen" ...

I guess now I’m officially old.:-( Those were sf paperbacks I mentioned earlier. I bought 10 cent comics, then when they went to 12 cents most of us had to cut back. When the comics went to 25 cents, I stopped all together. And Bazooka Joe comics with my bubble gum. Around 1981, I went to a comic shop. Standard was a dollar for a monthly. I remember when an annual Spiderman or Superman was a dollar and twenty-five cents. Would have answered sooner, but Hurricane Zeta took out electricity all over my area. -- Jim

Many of the ones I bought > back then cost me 95 cents to a dollar and 25 cents. Paperbacks. Second hand, I get them here for maybe 3--5 dollars. Many second-hand book stores have a SF bookshelf, and much of it is US paperbacks from the 1940s to 1970s, for some reason. Or much of it /used/ to be: it's gotten harder to find something interesting over the past 20 years. Then there's book stores via Amazon: you can usually find whatever you want there. I'm impressed by the quality of old paperbacks. The paper itself is more or less brown -- the color of the pulp ghost in Fritz Leiber's "Our Lady of Darkness" -- but the pages almost never fall out. They do in 1980s paperbacks. /Jorgen -- // Jorgen Grahn <grahn@ Oo o. . . \X/ snipabacken.se> O o .

Still have my (the last) Whole Earth Catalog from around 1974. Never built anything from it, but was more of an inspiration by that time. The great optimism of the 60's made real. The Limits to Growth, Club of Rome report around the same time, most of which never became true and far too pessimistic, but the title Club of Rome, said it all. Much compromise since, but the core values persist to this day for many... Chris

It turned me on to Bosch tools. First tool I bought when I got my first real job was a Bosch jigsaw and compared to what I was used to it was everything they said it was. 40 years later it finally died--part wore out and wasn't available from Bosch US. I found it on Bosch UK but they wouldn't ship it to me, so I got another one. And you know what, the old one was less convenient but it worked better.
