I can't read Spanish. It's an icky language. Aggghh !!! I'd

French is more palatable.

I missed that. Tommy thinks Spanish is the language of Brazil. Tangent:
we have sales reps in Brazil. Brazil has their own governmental
regulatory agency called INMETRO* which among other things controls the
importation of Hazard Location equipment, so most of our products have
Portuguese labeling and manuals. WE been processing our manuals through
google translate and having our reps proof read them, so far it's
workout remarkably well.

Shadow Likely is aware of your claim to have read the entire

I have read thousands of books. Was my main indoor hobby
before medicine took up all my time. Most books in a library are very
boring and practically useless. I'd never attempt to read them all.
I have also forgotten what I read in thousands of books :)
I write in Portuguese/English.

I had the understanding that Shadow was Argentinian. Even you, as stupid as you are know that the national language of Brazil is Portuguese. And strange that Shadow spoke of readubg thousands of books which would have been several libraries and you weren't smart enough to notice that.

Oh, I did not it, and it isn't uncommon for a medical professional to

But this explains things a bit, Tommy has only visited very very tiny
libraries. Lets check how many books the San Leandro library has....

No, tommy, a few thousand books are not a library, that's a small
collection.

Let me guess, you're definition of "library" is the stack of magazines
on the back of your toilet, right?

    You don't know a thing that you're talking about, as usual. That is a total number of books in the San Leandro main and all of its susidiary libraries meaning that there are duplicates at each library.

OK, there are three branches. Even with 100% duplication thats ~105,000 volumes per.
Meanwhile My city's library has 160,965, and has been in that location with than many books since ~1980.

 Also, in the last 75 years a gret many books have been published. Once upon a time they did not write books about DNA from the bones of thouands-of-years dead Dire Wolves and using dogs as serogets to bring back a species that was killed off by homo sapians to pretect themselves.

Books on DNA have been published since the Griffith experiments in the 1920's

They didn't write books about the philosophy of the Nepolianic wars.

You're seriously suggesting no one wrote in-depth analysis of the Nepolianic wars before you joined the airforce?

You want to pretend that books like that have always been around and that they bore some value in my teens.

The only "books" you valued in your teens were early copies of playboy.

Little dwarves like you should learn to read so that you know something about it. This is clearly why noone at your company expects you to work and you make no effort to.

Sure..Give us the names of these "libraries" you "read out" that only had ~1000 or so books...lol
