That's kind of how I'm approaching it too Mehm, at least they didn't choke themselves on wads of paper or something, or if they scaled the shelf...at least they didn't fall and bust their heads. Wouldn't have been able to forgive myself.

Really, there is a saying in Turkish, "cana geleceğine, mala gelsin".
However not everyone sees things that way.

LOL, Summer, Mehm doesn't respect human life, why would he respect human literary achievement? I've decided to just accept him as he is for the most part...lol, maybe I'm getting soft. Maybe if a Turk wrote it he'd be willing to help me form a firing squad.

Well, your own children didn't care, as far as I'm concerned.
And well, a quick google search would have sufficed for you to find a pdf format of the book. And you talk of it like it was a valuable ancient manuscript from the library of Alexandria with only a single copy that was owned by you.
