Maximize your preparation as much as you want. Let's just hope you don't get diagnosed with cancer with 60. At that age more and more friends are dying and you wonder whether you shouldn't have gone more often to the beach or

When claiming it's a scheme, they should also state which version they are aiming at. From the readme, this seems to be a partial implementation of R4RS? Is this correct?

For reading books, I'd rather go for an Android based device that features a more potent reader app that allows you to set bookmarks and to more easily jump around in big books. It works very well for reading papers and well structured
