Intent is not the issue here. Only the actual using of the utensil - while eating food or while preparing the food for eating - may not be done until after tevila.

He lived to around 90. I would presume he reviewed faster as he went along, so the average of the last few cycles would be more pages/day than that. Considering avid readers can polish a 1000 page (500 daf) novel in a day, this doesn't seem very outlandish to me. (more) |

The [hebrew wikipedia article](https://he.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D7%9E%D7%99%D7%93%D7%95%D7%AA_%D7%A9%D7%94%D7%AA%D7%95%D7%A8%D7%94_%D7%A0%D7%93%D7%A8%D7%A9%D7%AA_%D7%91%D7%94%D7%9F) has examples for each of these, would you like them reposted as an answer? (more) |
