 How can one have more books than they need???
Please explain pray tell!

Good point.

What I should have said was.

"..has enough books that lugging them back across the ocean very soon will be annoying."

or

"..has a lot of books to trade off but a lot more books on my 'want to read' list"

Any of you have a battered copy of Kerouac's On the Road?  Or anything of a similiar Beat generation vintage? 

I should probably read the entirety of the books I have to constantly tell my undergrad students to ignore when it comes to actually understanding the concepts of Japanese and Tibetan Buddhism...

Would that included "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance?"
