 Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brethern, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."

 Here are a few more lists for your consideration. They came from assorted email friends, and are not in any order. While I look through them for good ones we may have missed, perhaps you would like to, too?

 First is what I am told is the Robinson collection, on the CDROMs. All of these are out of print and/or out of copyright. That does not make them out-of-date! The Science texts are classics, still being used. You may wish to look for online classes using them.
