I just counted. We have 23 shelving units. 24, when we build the one we just got in a flatpack. A place to sit, a place to sleep, a place to park the computers, a place to stow our underwear ... and dozens and dozens of shelves. Thousands of books.
Then I think of the numbers I've seen for how few books people buy, and realize that I alone am using up a score of people's book quotas.

I know the feeling. I shudder to think of the issues of transporting my library when its time to move. I have the sneaking feeling that my friends will desert me in favor of lighter loads...especially with my HB habit.
