Geno,

Glad you're liking it! Good luck with the new bookshelf.

Oddly enough, contrary to what some people believe, over the past three years there's been a drop in sales of electronic books and an increase in the sales of traditional "paper" books, despite the "inconvenience" of turning pages and building bookcases. One reason has been suggested by reader surveys: Many people look at computer (and other) screens during most of the day on their jobs. As a result, when not working they prefer to relax with an actual book, rather than staring at yet another illuminated screen. (Of course, this doesn't apply to those who prefer to stare at their smart phone rather than look at any other part of the world.)
