We are continually working on improving the quality of transcriptions of Suzuki's lectures. After a new "verbatim transcript" is made, we create a minimally edited version which is more readable. See the most recently completed transcripts at shunryusuzuki.com/n. For more on the Cuke Archives Project see cuke.com, cukenew.blogspot.com and ShunryuSuzuki.com. Contact: .
