Bed Bugs? No, Bed Books

I think I have found what might be a good excuse for some of you to call in sick, take to your bed, and read. Snuggle up with the likes of Sherlock Holmes or Frankenstein. They even have a KJV of the New Testament. It's a good thing they have computers to do all that work. Reading the sideways copy might be easier on the neck, but writing one of these tomes by hand would bring on a terrible, new meaning to the term "writer's cramp".

Quote Of The Moment
The real danger is the gradual erosion of individual liberties through the automation, integration, and interconnection of many small, separate record-keeping systems, each of which alone may seem innocuous, even benevolent, and wholly justifiable.
--U.S. Privacy Protection Study Commission, 1977
