Theos-Talk Archives (January 2009 Message tt00081)

Here is another angle.

In today's Internet age, most of us buy our books on-line from sources such
as Amazon.com or e-bay. Also when the current digitation efforts progress,
most of the out of copyright as well as copyright material would be
available for free download or download purchase for a nominal price.

So, soon the issue of any lodge or center or any bookshop carrying a book
will become moot.
