Well that’s handy, but I just checked my local library and the next closest library, and they don’t have copies.
By the way, the ‘next closest library’ to where I live is the National Library of Australia.
Let’s assume they had it. Both buildings are locked and all electronic catalogues are down. How do I know about such a series, and how do I find it once I’ve broken in to the building?
And now how, without the food supply normal to a major city, do I go about building these materials and creating a grid-spec transformer? I’m hungry. All I’m concerned about is people not looting my house.
And once I do build it, what’s this individual transformer going to connect to? The rest of the grid is down.
All of the people who would be repairing the grid in normal circumstances are starving and at home protecting their family. None of them are out in a van fixing transformers.
So, cool books. I’m glad they exist. I can’t see how they help.
- jlg23 3y agoI'd assume the National Library of Australia also maintains a few traditional indices and maybe there are even one or two librarians around to help those who never had to find a book (or books on topics) in a library before computers. I'm lucky enough to have been forced to do this for school 30 years ago.
