Have you actually counted, rt, or is this a rough estimate?

But I think he uses LibraryThing, which might explain it. Right reesetee?
Wait... maybe reesetee really is apocryphal... *worries*

*stumbles toward keyboard through stalagmites of books*
No, I'm here! Actually, that's a rough count based on square footage and the average size of hardcovers vs. softcovers. ;-)
C_b, I have only a fraction of my books listed on LibraryThing so far. Can't seem to find the time to list them all, even with my handy little barcode scanny thing.

Oh my god. It's worse than we thought. He uses mathematical formulas to estimate the number of books?!

If other people do, I imagine they round to at least the nearest ten.

It's okay, reesetee. You're among friends. If you can't be a word geek on Wordie, well...

I'm jealous. I have only 414 books about words.

Ha! See? *points to mollusque*
Rounding to the nearest ten is so...ordinary. Wouldn't you agree, mollusque?

Ordinary and inordinate, reesetee.

Mollusque, most of my books are about words, or at least, word oriented. At least, they contain mostly words, so I assume that is related to the subject.
