    funny shit. Barnes and Noble are the new Libraries. Libraries now need Starbucks and Internet to get people there. Barnes and Noble tries to profit from the public space image along with free association-coffee tie, a symbolic stimulant associated with debate. Not if your debating what coffee tastes best.

    Maybe libraries should allow talking to get people back in attendance. The Beer Hall of 1920’s Germany or the Library of 2020’s USA?
