Re: Tuesday UnFunnies - RAIN Drop



"Preaching to the choir, I know, but it costs so little in the grand scheme
of government budgets to run a library relative to, say, a pork-barrel
project, and all anybody can do is look for ways to shut them down.  Given
an earlier spate of stories about them shutting the archives or library (I
forget which) in Wash. State, I'm starting to think there's a real
anti-library theme there."


It's probably not an anti-library theme that you're picking up on, but a real strain of anti-intellectualism that exists in this country. Libraries are scary places for people who don't value education.
