Oh, sorry, where you referring to British counties (I'm not sure what
the public library system is in Britain for this kind of thing - I'm a
student so have access to university libraries and inter-library loans
through that which aren't expensive at all - maybe even free)? I
generally assume if someone doesn't say what country they're talking
about then they mean the USA - it's usually a pretty safe assumption.
