You guys rlly don't realise how much knowledge is still not committed to the internet. I find books all the time with stuff that is impossible to find through a search engine- most people do not put their magnum opus research online for free and the more niche a skill is the less likely you are to have people who will leak those books online.

There is not a nation on the earth guilty of practices more shocking and bloody than are the people of the United States, at this very hour.”
