And speaking of new phone books, .........
I got my first Fisheries Supply Catalogue the other day with it's 1608 pages and fold out tabs and indices (indexes), and what a great reference it is!
I wore the cover off my West Marine Catalogue this year, using it to look up information for this site as well as personal use.
Too bad the Fisheries Supply Catalogue only has list prices, but with changing retail prices, I can see their point it saying that if your interested in a product and it's present price, follow up by checking it out on line or by calling them up. Probably helps minimize the revisions in the catalogue from year to year, too. (I imagine commercial customers get significant discounts, as well.)
Imagine Archimedes running down the street naked and fresh out of the bathtub, yelling "The new _______*________ is here!" , instead of "I found it!" (The principle of displacement/flotation.)
