The search for knowledge is a most honorable one. Only the knowledgeable manage to succeed in our world where the thick-witted are soon brought down and weeded out by the lack of such. Every day, they say, you learn something new...I hope that perhaps in these tomes you too will come away with something you hadn't known before and feel somewhat enlightened by the experience.
