It was a serious question. When you go to a museum or gallery, do you make arrangements to use the study-room to get your hands on original objects? If not, why do in in the British Library? Just so you have something to write on your look-at-me blog?

And do you really think it's unreasonable for them to ask to prove who they are by showing two forms of ID, and trying to prevent thefts by asking you to leave your backpacks in a locker? They have exactly the same security arrangements here in the US, you know. But you probably don't know that -- if you asked to see original Marx manuscripts in most US libraries they would tell you to piss off!

Have a good holiday!
