Tadokist, haha, cool! I learned about about extensive reading while I was getting my master's degree in teaching English. Someone on the Japan board at eslcafe.com recommended the Japanese books for anyone learning Japanese. I ordered the first set from the Kinokuniya in San Jose, California. (It's about 30 minutes from my place.) One of my Japanese clients brought me the second set when he visited his home in Japan briefly. I actually found the word "tadoku" by looking up "extensive reading" at alc.co.jp -- you know, normal Japanese<->English dictionaries don't have that kind of thing in them! I love that dictionary...

This video is so good to see the sound changes. I think lots of Japanese might take this 'go on' for 'gown' or something. BTW, I've introduced you to people in Tadoku site, and they are happy to know that there are some Tadokist, we call someone doing Tadoku Tadokist, in the U.S. I wonder how you got to know Tadoku and how you were able to get some books for Tadoku in Japanese.
