Speaking of a good book to read - I know people have discussed a great used
bookstore in Oregon - perhaps in Portland. Would someone remind me of the name
of it?
Thanks

Hi Shula,
Hope I get this right, it has been years and years. I think you are
referring to "Powells" in Portland OR. On Burnside I believe. A block or
so up from the what used to be great gallery district, on the water front.
As I recall, Powells is huge, like a whole city block or something. Great
atmosphere. Lots of cozy spots to sit and read. I think they had a coffee
bar, mabe a deli too. Like I say, it's been years ago. Memory fades,
fuzzes and warps too darn it. Hope this helps though.

Would that be Powells (www.powells.com)?
There are several used book stores in the Portland area, but Powells is an
entire city block, selling new and used. They tend to get the most press.

That'd be Powell's Books, located on West Burnside in Portland.
http://www.powells.com/ The website works well and the store(s) are
fantastic.
In addition to the main store, they have stores for Travel, Cooking, and
Technical books. A "must visit", good people watching, an in-store
coffee shop,
and they can find anything.
Just a satisfied customer,
Roger

Also, www.half.com has copies of this for as little as $0.99.
