And that's heresy! I couldn't even put a dogear in my book, let alone rip its pages out to be use as toilet paper or even worse, burning...
And I bring 2 ereaders with me when I go camping. I once got stuck on the top of a mountain (a true story), with only half of a book remaning to read for 3 days (and nothing else to do but reading and sleeping). I vowed then and there: Never again! (so the next time I brought 4 books, only managed to finish 1 in that entire week, since then I started reading electronically...)
