Mwahaha.
Er, ahem. This story just proves that reading journal threads can be very inspiring.
A hasty disclaimer: The librarians in this story are NOT meant to represent our President, any other researchers (er, Paul), or the librarian I live with...
I just got the corroborative detail out of listening to them all.
Thanks, guys.

Fantastic. Loved it. You know I had to _make_ myself not skim the end, I so couldn't wait the outcome.
Great atmosphere too.

Wonderful. Love it. I'm with Waz here: I had to tear myself off the screen and go to work this morning.

This is excellent .
The intellectual snobbery of the librarian, the atmospheric description of the library, the romantic figure in the light, the unexpected twist at the end are all well done.
