hmmm. 100,000 pages. at a minute per page (pretty quick for research, i think) that would be about 1,667 hours of reading. if you read 24 hours a day it would take you 69.44 days to finish this research (over 2 months). if you ratcheted it down to a mere 8 hours of reading every day on the same subject, Alcar research, it would then take you 208 days to finish. but i think it's more realistic to say that someone could average 3 hours of reading a day on the same subject, Alcar research, in which case it would take them almost 556 days, or just over a year and a half, to finish 100,000 pages. again, that's reading for 3 hours a day, every day on the same subject, Alcar research.
