I'm Manning the Escape Pod

[raygunray]

Just discovered the Pod and I simply can't get enough.  There are a few authors out there I've been meaning to read (like Resnick) but there are only so many hours in the Terran day.  I'm much impressed by the production quality and the stories are top notch.  I've needed something like this for a long time, especially since you can't get decent books-on-tape or CD at the library anymore. 

Just one question, where are the other hundreds of podcasts archived?

Don't know where you're living, but I have to disagree with this.  There's been a better-than-decent selection in the library systems I've been registered with lately (King and Snohomish/Island counties in Washington, and Multnomah and Clackamas counties in Oregon).

Maryland libraries are really good, too; and I *think* there is a nation-wide interlibrary loan program... though I haven't really explored using it, yet.  Most public libraries have a website these days, so I would start there.

It really all depends on the state and local government.  Some see it as important as schools and others see it as unimportant as schools.  There is normally a corollary between the funding of the schools and the funding of the libraries.

Yeah, lots of local variation on libraries.  I live in Georgia 
Basicly, you get books by/about Newt Gingrich, Flannery O'Conner, Lewis Grizzard, and the Civil War. 
Oh, and biographies of proffesional wrestlers.  I'm not kidding.

Sweet.  I heard that the biography of Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka was a real page turner. 

The library in our MN town is on a multi-county network so if they don't have what you are looking for you can make a request and chances are they can get it for you within a few days.

I got to go down to Augusta a while back to visit some friends stationed there, and we went to lunch at this pub on the river walk.  My friend stopped in the middle of a sentence, looked over my shoulder, and said, "Don't turn around too fast, but turn around."

I did, and was about three feet away from James Brown (and his lethal-looking bodyguard).  Good God, y'all!

Didn't check out the library, though.

I live in southern Mississippi, same problem here
When I asked where I could access the internet I was answered with "This is the county library not Best Buy!"

Oh, I suppose it's not all a cultural wasteland.  I guess the whole "regional pride" thing wears thin after a while.  Too many people think the world ends at the Tennessee state line, and that nothing worthwile ever happened outside the confines of their blessed South.
Still, I do love the food.  It's not for nothing I've gained about 50 lbs since I moved here.
