First,
To Harry...
Yes, I have most all of the Star Trek books from number 25 or so on. I bought most of them when I first got married over a few years. Now, here it is my son started reading them when he was 15, hes 17 now... so not quite 20 years.
That brings up an aside issue. I only have from 25 because a place we were renting had a basment that flooded. I had the books stored there and they were runied. The homeowners insurance paid us some sum to replace these books, even though I didn't rather getting more that I hadn't read yet. However, they don't cover any "data loss" from a stolen computer. Granted, this was 20 years ago, but the point being, the insurance company didn't think that digital assests had a monetary value... no wonder so many people think nothing of downloading music, movies, tv shows, and ebooks without paying for them.
To Zelda:
With the proliferation of "Starbucks" here the term "for the price of a cup of coffee" has changed from $1.20 or so to $8 (the average price of a medium sized latte at SB, no I hate coffee thank God.)
