I love it. I'd love to spend, nay, invest, a month in the New York Public Library, or, The Library of Congress, if only those were not in New York and Washington, D.C.! -- John, Akron

The two are unrelated, as we are learnining, even a library can be hell if it has been perverted by those who would censor it... -- Anonymous, Reston, VA US
This would be paradise for me. I'd also need a comfy seat, something to put my feet up on and a crispy apple. Oh, and others with whom to discuss the books. Ahhhh -- Barbara, Houston
I picture paradise as all knowledge already recieved. By that I mean all knowledge of EVERYTHING in the Multiverse. But for that to be paradise, everything important would already have happened and there would be nothing left to worry about. -- Anonymous, Raleigh, NC
