RE: Online tech books

My guess is that some of those books are just a fuel reserve, when the weather gets really cold. Given the oil and gas prices today, it does make sense, you know. Bears accumulate fat for winter, while DBAs accumulate books. On the other hands, our cycle is not related to the weather but rather to the versions of oracle. You'll see chimneys start spewing some smoke when Oracle 10(i?) comes out.
