Libraries? Still Useful?

Deja.com - Before you buy.
(smirk, true)

True story. Today I happened to be in a library. You know--the big room with lots of books and no people, as Uncle Al would say.

I was reading a magazine and came across an unfamiliar word. "Grubstake."

I decided to look it up. Without thinking I automatically wrote it down on a piece of scrap paper, intending to go home later and look it up on the Internet.

Did I mention I was in a library?

It suddenly dawned on me. I thought, "Wait a minute, you idiot! You're in a LIBRARY for God's sake! Do you realize what that means?"

"That means they have terminals with FREE INTERNET ACCESS! I can use a terminal right here!"

Only then, of course, did it occur to me to use an actual paper dictionary.
