I didn't realize that Jeremy's slicer could handle HTML directly. That's a real time saver.
I see that some formatting is lost. In particular, the <em> tag used in the preamble of chapter 1. This might mean that other formatting (like bold) might also be lost in some places. It appears to me that you might want to start over with a different starting tiddler name, since "Sliced up Amgov.htm..." appears in every tiddler and in every link. I can imagine how students would respond to that. I think if it was me I'd want some way to get rid of the pink text. Have fun!
