Let's Try Reading

Robert at Let's Try Freedom has an interesting idea for spreading the wealth around the globe. The wealth of knowledge that is. Create a central clearing house for donated books. he estimates it shouldn't be too hard to have a collection of 40 million books.

There are some books I'd be glad to share, and others I would say "sorry, gotta keep these".  Let's use that level of generosity as the assumed default:  it's nice and generous, but I don't have to actually be Jesus to pull it off. 

I've got boxes of books that have been through 4-5 moves without seeing the light of day. If I looked at them with Robert's standard in mind, I bet I'd be willing to part with at least half of that.

Head on over and read the whole thing. and leave him some encouragement to get this started.
