"The best
laid plans of mice and men.........are about equal."

file access times. I have all of 2009,
2008,

New
acquisitions...(and old "I brought them in from the garage"
ones!)...
Recommended books
in RED (but
just because it's not red,
doesn't
mean I don/t like it--I might not have read enough of
it to know, when I posted it below)
Also,
note
that
these
books
are NOT uniformly cited in the
technically-correct fashion, but only to the extent needed to
identify/find them yourself.
