burning chess books

Just... burning them? Unceremoniously? On the ground? Hasn't anyone taught you that you're supposed to wrap gifts? The least you could do is carve a pentacle into the earth to place them on.

(Christian Johann Heinrich Heine)

What was left of the LAW Library at the University of KwaZulu/ Natal when some students rioted a few years ago and set it alight. No comment.

Why was this moved to Off Topic and not Chess Books & Equipment?

Would just be cruel.

This thread has reignited out of nowhere after more than a year of dormancy! Obviously an ember has been smoldering all this time. Is Satan behind this phenomenon?

Res ipsa loquitur!.
I wonder how many of the so-called "bright sparks" who "haunt" these forums have actually READ a book???? Also would they be adequately educated to be able to do so?Â

No, really. You just reignited the thread after about fifteen months of it being dormant. Were you in a coma all that time or something?
I'm burning 30 chess books to my father SATAN! 😈🤘
