Been thinking of dropping off books to the local "neighborhood library" (one of those small unmanned stalls) but I'd been delinquent. You've given me the motivation to get around to it tomorrow; thx.

When I do that, I try to do the opposite of what it seems everyone else does. Namely, I try to give away the good books. It seems most want to keep the good books and give away the not so good books. I try to give away books that I'd want to read.

Yes this occurred to me as well. Luckily I have a few old beat up copies of good books like Catch22.
