Yeuggh. Bookleaze sounds too close to Booksleaze! What is the process by which people come up with names for their entrepreneurial efforts? I had a similar query in the old days of Live Journal (a blogging site which barely exists now) and the answers were varied and very...Interesting!
I don't find the lending library scene very attractive in Bangalore. There was actually a mobile van from the Seshadri Iyer Memorial (Central) Library which did the rounds each week, and it went from adequate to pathetic, and ulitmately stopped altogether. However, we still pay Library Cess as part of our income tax! Deepa. On Fri, Dec 30, 2016 at 11:40 AM, Charles Haynes <charles.hay...@gmail.com> wrote: > Oh that's much better than my search.
