Interlibrary loan is truly a wonderful thing, especially for (but not limited to) obtaining obscure papers from rare journals. And skilled interlibrary loan librarians deserve WAY more respect than I think they get! If you're at an institution and use interlibrary loan often, please express your gratitude to the folks that work in that department. (I have been known to ply mine with occasional plates of cookies.)

@angiebaby @SeanAloysiusOBrien Reminds me of this old Dave Barry classic...

@LexiGirl @freemo @georgetakei I'm sure it's about control: they want their beliefs enforced at all costs, and they do it under the guise of "saving" people. It may not even be conscious for many of them--they don't see "saving" as power & control; they just crave the fulfillment of "saving" people, which equals exerting power. Their self-worth is tied wholly to the ability to control others. But they'll never understand that about themselves--they're incapable of that degree of self-awareness.
