[color=#000000ost_uid0]Good Rubik's Sphere of MOOD!

Interesting aside: In the UBC library under the call number NX 01 is a book called Avant-Garde Poetry in the 1960s. This has been another useless fact.[/colorost_uid0]

Hmmm.
a) LC numbers in BC?
b) Idle curiosity as to who would be discussed in such a book[/colorost_uid0]

a) LC?
b) I can little for poetry, especially post-modernist drivel, so you'd have to fly to Vancouver and look for yourself.

Although I do get very bored here...[/colorost_uid0]

[color=#000000ost_uid0]Pandimensional televangelists ... anywhere


a) LC = Library of Congress catalog numbers -- NX turns out to be the General Fine Arts prefix instead of literature, so maybe not. Just a reflex from having worked in reference when I was in school.
b) I'm not especially interested in poetry, either, but 60s avant-garde is as likely as any and more likely than some to catch my attention. [iost_uid0]Idle[/iost_uid0] was the operative word, here. [/colorost_uid0]

That's the term I was looking for. Yeah, most university libraries seem to use that system. UBC, SFU, OUC (where I got my degree). I've almost forgotten the Dewey system.[/colorost_uid0]
