The Limited Size of Public Libraries

When one mentions information printed in a book one thinks of the shelves of various libraries throughout the world. Most counties in the United States have a public library, albeit sometimes just a small one. The books present in one are usually a very small selection of curated books or donations that will appear in many public libraries around the country. While books are a form of information that last the longest, in their physical form there is not much space for them. You have public libraries, university libraries, houses of religion, private warehouses and servers for brick-and-mortar and online retailers, and then the ever-ephemeral personal homes. So such a very small amount ever get to be widely distributed. Many undeservedly do, and many great works go unnoticed, touching a few lives, and then are at risk of the Big Delete. This is why Islam will go on to dominate the religion space. It’s book is short and simple, anything that wants to last will need to imitate its style. I hold on my desk a small booklet from Eckankar based in Chanhassen, Minnesota, near Minneapolis. That is yet another text-seed and body of language that most of the world must be oblivious to, and yet it lives. Each file needs an Ekklesia such as this. The Temple of Ek campus is singular though, I am not sure where else there is a complete library of Harold Klemp and the rest of the Mahanta line. I will keep track of it. Next I would like to bring your attention to the bling and deaf woman Helen Keller who died in 1968. She had language even without sight and sound, truly this is the essential human characteristic. She knew that is love is something not seen or heard. She left several books, most of them now in public domain. Know them well and observe her use of sense-data verbs and nouns. What programming language could she have used? I imagine her writing a quipu that can be dipped into a machine that produces braille output for her. Perhaps she would have liked APL, each character drips with more meaning that can be understood with fewer characters allowing each to be touched and meditated on, even by a blind-deaf person. So then, it and others have this unique value as programming languages.
