   Six!  You have to do six or you will fall behind. ;-)

   Anyone completely lost should get Through the Looking Glass by
Lewis Carroll and read the first encounter between Alice and the Red
Queen.  And if you haven't read both Alice books as an adult, get them
and read them!  You will find that they were not really written for
children, and you have to be a pretty sophisticated logician to get
some of the jokes.  (Charles Dodgson also wrote a book on Boolean
Logic which was still used as a college text when I was growing up.)
