Jetsam

I am just not blogging much these days. I know you know, but somehow I have to say it out loud (in print).

This very tidy little question the other day on the reference desk:

"I'm trying to find out the volume of a barrel of oil." And there it was tucked away in the Science and Technology Desk Reference, and I found the answer in under 60 seconds. Those are the questions that make you feel like you have your finger on the pulse of the world's information.

Hubris, anyone?
