Passing hours in a library

"Hey Elam, did you hear the news?"

"No Seth, what is it?"

"That crazy man with the big red beard who's always snooping around our garden disturbing stuff is planning to start seminary this fall!"

"That's great news, Elam! I bet he'll be so busy working in some dimly lit library he won't have time to screw with our crops anymore."

"You've got a point there... but we could end up with an even bigger problem on our hands..."

"Oh, what's that?"

"All that time in those dark libraries and he might start thinking he's one of us?"

At the risk of being perceived as incredibly lazy for posting someone else's thoughts, I offer this link to an exceptional article forwarded to me by my friend Alex Dupree:

For those of you interested in sociological/psychological/philosophical conundrums, this may be of interest to you.

Enjoy!
