Well, if they are so proud of their role in the free PD ebook movement, why don't they keep their library on the servers? Sorry, but for me that statement is hypocritical.

As for me, since I became a member here, I've been spending as much of my free time as I can afford (and sometimes more) preparing ebooks for the Patricia Clark Memorial Library. But thanks for the friendly encouragement.

What is TANSTAAFLibrary, btw?
