For what it may be worth, my spouse and I in the last week purchased a book that was "available" at the local library. Available is quoted since the books shows 0 of 6 copies available and a 6 month+ wait time. How many copies would be left at the end of that time? The Great Ghu alone knows.

I was outvoted 1-1 on purchasing "It Takes a Psychic" with muttering about someone being unhappy with being dust bunny deprived.

As Kenny Rogers said, "You've got to know when to hold 'em Know when to fold 'em."
