This is an impressive bit of work. I have had, though, an interesting thing happen, in that it's apparently trying to pull every single item from explore and from suggested items in, to the extent that I get a message saying I have 13 million items, and still going strong -- it pulled about 5 or 6 gig of data down .

Is there some way to avoid all the years of explore and suggested items with reader archive? I tried limiting the maximum number of items to 10.000 but it was still running and growing after 12 hours. Interesting though, what it was able to accomplish in that time.
