[QUOTE="Poppy2020, post: 191518, member: 34446"] “About the photo of your TKG3: You're not using it anywhere near enough. By now it's supposed to be dog-eared, coffee stained, with ketchup and mustard smears, maybe even beer stains, with all sorts of notes and cross references penciled in the margins, and post-it notes marking key pages. Maybe even with a few pages falling out! As a pristine, museum specimen it's next to worthless. :) But, do not throw away the old, worn copies. Those are priceless. Bequeath them to your grand-kids, or donate them to a local library. Everybody in this world needs to discover what a tarantula REALLY is!“ Ah.....but you see I worked in libraries for nearly 20 years! I know how to take care of my precious books :). That particular book even has a paperback protective plastic covering! :) [/QUOTE]
