Let's Try This Again
Correcting a link mix-up last week, here is the correct link to the story about collecting phone books. Over 3,000, in case you're wondering, and it's a thoroughly interesting story both from a nostalgic and geek perspective.Paul Baxter, who submitted the link originally, let me know that his friend (who wrote the story) also has a website called Statoids, which is filled with an inconceivable amount of detail about every country on earth. It's a rabbit hole with exits to an exponential number of other rabbit holes, and I mean that in a good way.
