I Love The Encyclopedia Britannica - a photo on Flickriver

            My Mother Of Blessed Memory bought the Encyclopedia Britannica for me when I was twelve. It came with its own bookcase. I read it every day as a child. 
When I was in graduate school, I bought the 11th Edition because it had a world-renowned physics section in a period of great and amazing progress in physics. 
After all these years, I still rely on the Britannica for honest, accurate, scholarly, and intelligent information. 
Yes, I do recommend the Encyclopedia Britannica. 📖

When I was at the Weizmann Institute in Rehovot, Israel, Senator Benton came to give a symposium lecture.  He was the head of the Encyclopedia at that time. The story he told us was amazing and had a wonderful punchline. I think I have it here on Flickr. I will try to find it. ;-)
