Does anyone have this book, "Weight training for cyclists" by Ken Doyle and Eric Schmitz? McGill's library doesn't have it. Maybe someone (vic?) can suggest to the library that they buy it?

well, I only thought of you because you are in Kinesiology and you also happen to be the assistant coach of the cycling team, so I think if you went to the library and were like, "The Mcgill library really needs to have this book", then they would definitely buy it.

i can be pretty persuasive...
and yes, i am in kin. that's why i figured you pointed to me. but, i suggest you buy it (for only $15!!), you'd get a copy way faster that way. i'm not really familiar with the procedure for telling the library they need to get a book... in fact, i have never taken a book out of the mcgill library before... :~

Vic, I cannot BELIEVE that you have done 3.5 years of school here and you have never taken a book out of the library. I think you should do it once just because, otherwise I will recommend to the administration that they not give you your diploma.

I take books out of the library just so that other people can't have them. Is that wrong?

That's better than NEVER taking books out of the library.

Ben, as one who works in the library, Victoria is not alone in never borrowing a book and I'm afraid neither is PeteW who may be tempted to borrow books so that others cannot use them. At least he is willing to borrow, other students actually hide books in the stacks! Ah, the stories that can be told ......... 8)
