And I am not and never have been talking about those... I have been talking about PG and the Patricia Clark Memorial Library and other such sources.
Are those being paid for? How?

You've made that point already clear.
My poll hasn't been unambiguously.
(I'm usually writing while in conference calls. When starting the poll and same now. I'm often enough distracted, I admit it. And I project my own pattern onto others).
But in the meantime everyone -you as well- know what was meant.
BTW: It's considered impolite and bad style, to write in capital letters and smash your head.
Idiots such as me might not deserve better. But intellectually superior people like you then even more should mind their manners.
I hope your healthy self-confidence pays in your job.
