Well, I do remember some of the discussion, and reading did come up. As I
recall, Russ _was_ very supportive of any theme tying into "reading". . .!
I'd like to add my Yes-vote to the theme as proposed by Doug. I am
intrigued by the idea that our discussions could shift back and forth: acts
of reading, notions of literacy, and the various contexts shaping our
understanding of what reading means AND what we read means. I hope that
makes some sort of sense.
Whether or not I sound coherent, I'm already looking forward to May!
