Ah, yes, the old "But it's a book! Books are dead and worthless!" *eyeroll*

The odd thing is that when I said "people don't want your crap", I didn't mean thrift stores or charitable institutions, which demonstrably want your crap, or books. Because of everyone wants books! I have my own blind spots. :)

I feel like there's a huge difference between giving used books to people and giving almost anything else to them. But that's probably because I belong to the cult of the book, like every other sensible human. :)
