(I was having such a lovely, relaxing morning before I got this article in my inbox, and now my blood pressure is through the effing roof!)
Sure their research is vapid, their reporters insipid, and any "groundbreaking story" is months old, but it really does irritate me when The Fucking Washington Post has to present yet another opinion piece on < a href="http://blog.washingtonpost.com/rawfisher/2007/06/random_friday_question_do_we_n.html">"Do We Really Need Libraries Anymore?"
To which I can only say, "Dude, have you BEEN to a library recently?" Every time I go to a DC library there is a LINE of people waiting to check out books, and if I go early there is a LINE of people waiting to go in!
I have to say how much I adore the populace of my city that they are all arguing with this idiot. Americans really aren't as stupid as TPTB want to believe.
