Today's Blatherings

09:31 It's a little funny to see how many 4e books have been stolen from the King County Library. Maybe it's time to donate some replacements...
15:58 Sitting outside in the shade, sipping a drink, reading a good book. What more could you ask for? Besides an army of giant robots, of course.

	They'll just get swiped again. I used to work in a library, and gaming stuff was notorious for getting stolen (or borrowed and returned, which amounts to much the same thing). (Reply to this) (Thread)

	Why are gaming books taken so often? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Gamers are cheap? More seriously, I'd guess it's because they're hobby reference books that are useable in and of themselves. Swiping a book on mountaineering or cycling won't do you much good without the appropriate expensive equipment, but with RPGs the books themselves are the expensive equipment.

	Isn't "borrowed and returned" what libraries are there for? (Reply to this) (Parent)(Thread)

	Typo. Meant to say "borrowed and never returned". (Reply to this) (Parent)
