basingstoke: The thing tire me. I was ordering some books online and each cost about $8.50. My colleague asked me why don't I download the softcopy. I guess he doesn't understand what it means to own a classic and smile at them when they are sitting comfortably in the shelves of your library. Ooh yah!!!
