   So some librarian fun facts for you:

   The guy who shot the CEO in New York wrote the words deny, defend, and depose on his bullet casings. This seems to refer to a book about the insurance industry written by Jay Feinman and titled Delay, Deny, Defend.

   This book is currently out of print, though it appears you can get a copy on Kindle. But fuck Amazon, let's see what's happening at some local libraries. 1/2

     @objectrecyler @jessamyn @cyberpunklibrarian This was one of the books the Internet Archive was forced to take down. But, I see someone said f*ck it, and uploaded a copy people can download.

     And for the love of God and all that is holy, and think of the children, DO NOT click this link :blobfoxdevil: : https://drive.proton.me/urls/84MMX8N01C#2TB3bo6o0s5Q

     God forbid if anyone uploads this book for people to read... *cough cough, epub format, cough*

     Given the number of people interested in the book "Delay, Deny, Defend" by Jay Feinman, the normal capitalist thing would be for the publisher to issue a new print run.

     I wonder why that is not happening?

     @PythonLinks @georgepotter @RWA @objectrecyler @jessamyn @cyberpunklibrarian Odd, you’d think the market would fix it.
