I'm surprised you're not a librarian

145-148 done; someone did 150, toopage 3 done
151-160 are finished (with help from someone else)
162 done. FYI, be careful with names like "A. Milke James". There are a lot of names on this list that have the first name last, i.e., James A. Milke. 4 of the 6 names in 162 were like that. Just skimming through the remaining displayed, I'd say there's a good chance about 50% of the names left might be reversals. Debbie, is it worth unblanking the finished entries to uncover other reversed names? Or is that hopelessly difficult to do?
163 done. Same problem with two of the names being reversed.
Okay, 50% name reversals was a bit overkill. Not nearly as bad as I thought. I hopped, skipped, and jumped through the remaining entries (whatever is still visible on this page) to pick out any possible reversed names. I fixed them where I could, but I left the rest of the entries alone.

I've just been listing alphabetically if anyone wants to double check anything (plus probably more are being added while this list being worked on); goodreads regular search ignores punctuation and extra spaces marks but the "add book/author" tool will search more exactly.
The A's are a bit odd anyway because sometimes author is "A Benedictine Monk" and not "A. Benedictine Monk".
