Amazon and the brown trucks.  I even hold some stock in Amazon.

I had to get rid of several piles of magazines and about a thousand books
when we sold the house.  I still have well over a thousand books in storage.
Every time I return to storage I have to off load books even after leaving
some along the way.  I am dropping several off here on my son.  I am a
voracious reader with a never satisfied sense of coursity.
