BCL - rant deux

If any of you recall my ?????-filled post on the British Library (a.k.a the issue of the Sandman book), I actually took it up with them (mainly after reading Sudarshan's comment). I got a reply telling me that the book was available for Juniors and a catch-all Classic membership and not for the normal Senior member. The problem with this reply was that it told me something I already knew and made no reference to the fundamental point, i.e. the incorrect categorisation. So I wrote another (longer) mail throwing all the wattage of light I could on the matter. By now a little more impassioned, I ended my mail by saying that "you might as well make Lolita available too".

Well, the line went dead from that point onwards and I haven't heard from them in more than a week. Whether "the matter is under consideration" or if I have been classified into the file of "pesky persons" and mail redirected to trash, I don't know. Anyway, I shouldn't be blamed for not thinking too much of their PR.

End trivial rant. Grrr.
