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!
