Have people started reading The World Without Us? Will we be ready to discuss around March 20? ecodork will start a thread for the discussion on or about March 20 if people will be ready by that time.<br><br>
I will finish reading it tonight or tomorrow morning depending on distractions. I look forward to the discussion.

I have started........maybe 3 chapters in. I don't read so much in the winter but have been bringing it to work and read one day at lunch.

 

[satfix]

I've started, but having a hard time getting into it.. about 3 or 4 chapters in.

 

[Lincoln]

I'm well into it, but am having a hard time finishing it.

 

[ToddEP]

Finished it 3 days ago!

 

[ecodork]

I just started it last night because I had to finish up another book first.

 

[morph]

Still on hold at the library.

 

[Tim]

It's level of being interesting comes and goes but it's worth finishing.

 

[ym]

I haven't started it yet - I mentioned before that I was studying for an exam that took precedence. I might sit out the first book and start with ya'll on the second one.

 

[mrscoby78]

I just got mine, but haven't started yet. I'll be ready for 3/20 though.

 

[toe jam on crusty feet]

I am totally loving it, just short on time. I am on the Africa chapter!

 

[Calliope]

My copy arrived this week. I'll be ready on the 20th. I'm looking forward to it.

 

[Gingerbread]

I haven't started it yet (don't have it yet even) but will probably start this weekend, once I get it. I expect to be able to finish it in time unless it's mind-numbingly boring. I don't think it will be.

 

[Tim]

We will miss your input on the first one but the exam definitely takes precedence.

 

[muzicgrl]

I started it this morning. i really didnt think I was going to like it, but I am loving it so far. My little scientific brain is in book heaven...

 

[mrscoby78]

I am just not enjoying this at all. For me, it's like reading an instruction manual. I don't have a little scientific brain. I keep finding myself doing that thing where I'm reading, but then my mind wanders off and I find I've just been staring at the same page for several minutes.

 

[Lincoln]

It feels like I'm being passive-aggressively scolded. I want to tell the guy that I didn't <i>invent</i> plastic, so get of my damn back.

 

[muzicgrl]

Then just wait until you get to the Texas oil chapter. <img alt="biggrin.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/biggrin.gif">

 

[Lincoln]

I'm finished.<br><br>
If you need me, I'll be in my cave not using nuclear- or coal-generated electricity nor anything with petroleum or plastic in it.

 

[Gingerbread]

I've just started on plastics. It's hard to read just before I go to sleep. I think I read 2 pages the other night, and then it was snooze-ville for me.<br><br>
I think this weekend will see it finished.
