Spiderzilla is a Firefox 2 extension. If you use FF3, you'll need to fiddle a bit to get it installed. The Mozilla Addons site will say it's for an older version, and won't offer to download it.

You can grab it from here: http://spiderzilla.mozdev.org/index.html and save a local copy of the XPI file. Once you have it, let us know, and I can tell you how to get it to install.

It actually runs in FF3. The difference from FF2 is that you don't see the progress, or get a visual indicator that it has completed. (I just check the download directory I told it to place the files it grabbed, and look to see if it got everything, then exit from it.)

But if he declines then people will just have to do it themselves, or do without. It's his privilege.

Well, it took a while, but Professor Schakel agreed. I got the following email today:

Quote:

Dear Dennis,

Thank you for your prompt reply to me several months ago. I apologize for not replying myself before now. I read your reply, left it for responding to later, and never got back to it.

If you're still interested, I give you permission to convert Reading with the Heart and Reason and Imagination in C. S. Lewis to various ebook formats and make them available for interested readers. If you need formal approval beyond this e-mail message, let me know what I need to do next and I'll try very hard not to let it slip through the cracks again.

All the best,

Peter

I told him the above should be sufficient, and that I would let the folks on MR know. I told him I'd drop a note when the conversions were up, and invited him to stop by MR and talk about about what led him to write the books.

So have at, Patricia.

Who hasn't forgotten MR, but has been busy elsewhere, and should be a bit more regular now that he's out from under.

I'll get on to it Dennis.
Thanks for telling us.

And the book is now uploaded in LRF, PRC, IMP and LIT.
Do convey our thanks to Professor Schakel for his kind permission.

I've done so already, but I'll do it again.

Thanks for doing the conversions.

Looking again, note that he gave permission to convert both books, so you are welcome to do Reason and Imagination in C. S. Lewis as well, if you haven't already done so.

Yes, that is on the list for tomorrow.
(I've also got a couple of Dumas sequels on the go, and want to finish them first.)

It took a bit longer than I expected, but I've now uploaded Reason and Imagination in C S Lewis too.
