Floating Holiday Reading system

Members note: The HMTP will be revised after the meeting this week. We will be adding the sequel to THE EUDAMONIC PIE titled THE PREDICTORS. Also Manchester's THE GLORY AND THE DREAM will find a place. This, and another weighty tome, Shirrer's THE RISE AND FALL OF THE THIRD REICH, will require some creative project management skills to avoid schedule slippage. We have learned that the 800+ page books present schedule problems that are not seen in the shorter books. Rick's 'system' claims to be a strict minimum page-per-day method, but in reality relies on weekends to catch up. And with the long books there just aren't enough weekends to ever recover the lost time. The new method will break the book into at least two months, with a short book inserted in the middle as a buffer. The long book can then borrow some weekends from the shorter one as a Floating Holiday.

This concept needs a better name. Ideas:
