I agree.  It's a long book!

  Two week sections would probably take two years to complete if the 
average section is 20 pages long and I think the average is closer to 
10 - 12 pages.   (does someone know how many sections there are?)  Do 
the math - 1085 / 12 =  90 (rounded) sections  x 2 weeks per section 
= 180 weeks of discussion =  3.5 years.

  Eeks!   One section per week will still take about a year and a half.
