That you have a book for a while does not mean you plan to keep it. For me its
not even really about how long you keep a book but what your intention is.
If you intend to find and keep good books then you're not, in my opinion,
entering into the pririt of BC.
So few books are in circulation, relatively, at this stage that having people
find and keep them is likely to lead to the demise of BC.
I am suprised at how strongly i feel about this :-)

I agree! I'd like to see my books keep traveling, but I don't keep
track of where they are. While I believe they should be passed on and
not kept, it's not my decision, and I'm not going to get upset if
someone keeps one. I've had BC books in my possession for months and
their 'owners' may think I'm hoarding, but I just haven't gotten around
to them yet. Eventually they'll go back out in the wild.
