This is devotion to a website, to a man, to a book–to the idea of America:

My wife and I have enjoyed the Corner discussions regarding the scarcity of Legacy and other right-minded books at Posman Books at Grand Central Terminal – she works in the tower above the station and I pass through frequently – plenty of Chomsky and Franken available for your holidays. So the wife went in to look for Legacy today, and with the help of a sales clerk was able to locate the one copy, in the back (under public affairs, with the alphabetical system conveniently set up to strand it on the lowest shelf). She informed the clerk that she wanted two copies, so after checking their computer, they were able to determine that one is on order and could be held. She inquired: one shipment, or one single book? One single book. So my wife suggested they order a few more so that she didn’t deprive any other potential buyers of the last copy. Duly noted.
