all these books.."

Good point. Which brings me to ask -- how many were bought in order to do
some serious thinking on the issue? As opposed to "this confirms the
stories I've been told." Of course, no answer here either.

But the sheer number of books printed ought to be some sort of bounding
data to the question (which has not yet been fairly posed, of course).
