I'm too busy & distracted with a paper right now to come up with a real intelligent response to this post or any of the intelligent comments on it... but you managed to mention a whole bunch of books I love or am fascinated by, and say intelligent things about them, and you're also talking about audiobooks, which I listen to and am fascinated by (I keep asking myself, were Twilight and New Moon less objectionable because I *listened* to them instead of *reading* them? If so, WHY on earth would that be the case? It needs more pondering), and now you mention Kindles! I got one for my birthday in October and I haven't yet totally figured out how to integrate it into my reading life -- but I'm working on it. So I'll keep thinking about the issues this post brought up. :)

Gnomic Utterances. These are traditional, and are set at the head of each section of the Guidebook. The reason for them is lost in the mists of History. They are culled by the Management from a mighty collection of wise sayings probably compiled by a SAGE—probably called Ka’a Orto’o—some centuries before the Tour begins. The Rule is that no Utterance has anything whatsoever to do with the section it precedes. Nor, of course, has it anything to do with Gnomes.
