Just a humble question: How is this List derived? Are the words an arbitrary list of all not-self-explanatory terms from The Book? IMHO it would work this way: Somebody reads "Them Or Us" and encounters the word "Hohner". So he/she thinks, what the heck did Mr. Zappa mean with that? Is that a composer with Christian name Arthur or some underware? Lets look at the Zappa WikiJawaka and find the secret meaning of it. So in other words, this List kind of works the other way round: you're not coming from the web searching or surfing but looking up a certain term.

It would be very convenient if there was a text ersion of "Them Or Us" (The Book) to search for the List words because as ready as I hink I know what a Hohner is, there might be a whole lot of words one would have to see it within its context in the book.

Okay, now I'm working = OCRing The Book.
I am aware that this has to be strictly for my personal use.

I guess it will take you some time.
