They're shiny. And snazzy. And I've just been admiring them all day. This will likely occupy me for months. xd

Oh, indeed it will. xd
You'll get a taste of so much of the old classic Writings on the Writings that we have no access to any more.... I wish they'd compile & reprint a bunch of those essays!
I'm lucky enough to own the Illustrious Clients Casebook and a couple of other scholarly volumes, but there's still a lot I only know from those sidebar notes.

There are lots of hints and tantalising tidbits for which I would love elaboration. I'll have to go bookstore snooping now.

Oh, very good, Planck! That is an excellent set.

I think now I shall have to go dig mine up from wherever I've stashed them...

Mine are buried in a box in a pile of boxes back in the mountains at my parents' place. sad
