Yes, I already had most of them in the house already. This pushed me into getting the complete set. (ETA. It just struck me this is a forum about ebooks, so the above comment is doubly strange. Most books I buy are electronic. Weird…. And time to stop thinking about this comment for me.)

It’s incredible how the most innocuous comments on this most innocuous of forums brings out preposterous replies such as this.

And one day it will be your circus and your monkeys, but you will have already given in.
