Well I actually find having many of these older Edition books and redundant or older books on hand very useful. I have tones of books as well, in fact FoxtrotUniform and I were discussing this very thing in CB the other day. Tons o' books is a good thing to me :) ...but I digress, I actually use these books as "Safe To Borrow Out" books for newbies and co-workers I am mentoring. I don't like to borrow out current books, and I find that a 2nd Ed book is just as helpful to a FNG as the 3rd Ed, and it also gives them a "preview" to see if they want to go out and buy the latest edition themselves. "Nothing is sure but death and taxes" I say combine the two and its death to all taxes!

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

Want more info? How to link
or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
