5-7 books to something something about me? Good Lord. Um...

Okay, "A Wrinkle in Time", that's like a free space.

Thaddeus Golas, "A Lazy Man's Guide To Enlightenment".

Robinson, "A Short, Sharp Shock".

Me, "All Reality" (docs.google.com/document/d/1KH)

Ram Dass, "Be Here Now"

I don't know! Maybe Morick (ed) "Challenges to Empiricism".

Ooh how about Abbott's "Flatland"?

"Principia Discordia" of course.

Darn, that's eight already, and I haven't listed "The Wind in the Willows" yet, which should probably have been first.

And lots more!!

Thing about donating Bibles to a homeless shelter is - we already have them. Shelters get Bibles all the time. Once in a while, somebody picks one up. If you want to donate something that will help, check the shelter website. They might have a list of stuff they need. Socks and hygiene items are always useful.

If you *really* want to help the homeless, destroy capitalism.
