>>>>>Ah, don't I just wish. I used to read during my commute on the train when I worked in downtown Toronto, but now that I work 80 miles away, and have to drive, I find that when I try to read at 80 miles an hour on the highway, the book keeps slipping off my lap. ;)

>>>Good ideas both. Charles suggested the books on CD and I'm gong to see what's out there, but now I wonder if maybe somebody makes a bookstand for automobile dashboards. If not, I should look into it. May be something patentable there. ;

>That's why prefer the books on mp3. That way I can close my eyes while it drive. ( I find seeing those other cars coming at me to be very distracting - especially if I'm tripping. )

Note to self: avoid driving in the Cleveland area at all costs.
