Hi Brent,
Thank you for the comment over at my profile. As you can tell, I sometimes too am not as active at the site as I could be.
I try to keep track of other libraries/users with LDS books, probably mostly to get recommendations. I'm trying to read LDS books lately.
I'm not much of a collector right now. I think I once counted I've lived in 8 states which equates to about a month every 4 years, so I'm trying to be possession 'lean'. We'll see where I end up next.

Have a good holiday season,

Aaron
Thank you, sir. If there is protocol for friendshipping, I probably violated it, since I hastily tagged your profile. (I knew I'd want to return to it and get in touch with you, but didn't take the time to send a proper message.) This site is more genteel than most.

You seem to be living my dream. I entertain the HOPES that some day my children will take an interest in my library. Oh, and my bachelor's was in history.

I noted your German background. I successfully completed the 202 level in college but haven't maintained that too well. If I can brush up passably with my Kontakte textbook, do you have other suggestions to help me transition back into appreciating direct German literature?

Yes, the overlap is growing. I'm glad to see that you entered the Journal of Discourses volumes separately--now I may just get around to that.

Take care,
Kris, aka kswin
