There was an out-of-print paper book not available in ebook format that I really wanted to read, so I ordered a paper copy intending to scan it, but it's been a month since it shipped, and it still hasn't showed up (I blame this ont he fact that the title is _The Wandering Scholars_).

So I did a little more googling and found out that there is an online collection which had it available for reading online, but, as I am not a member of the university collective it offers access to, I could only read it one page at a time.

I just spent the past three hours copying and pasting the etext together, page by page. It is 330 pages long, so that's about, um, a hundred pages an hour.

Am I the only person who commits this kind of insanity?
