Heh. I've been crawling through Everything and More and it's definitely not an excellent place to start, unless you've already got the transfinite math chops and are reading it for sheer enjoyment. (Note: I don't already have the transfinite math chops, and while I'm reading the book for enjoyment, it's "sheer" mainly in the sense that the unforgiving cliff face to which a novice climber clings is sheer.)
