What book is on the stand?

Althouse's oft-cited OED?; 12/12/13, 9:13 AM
Freeman Hunt said...: I thought she used the OED on the computer.; 12/12/13, 9:39 AM
Ann Althouse said...: "What book is on the stand?"

An unabridged dictionary. There is one of those 2-volume tiny print OEDs on the lower shelf, but the book on top is an American Heritage dictionary, 3d edition. I enjoy using it, in part because it has diverting illustrations on every page.; 12/12/13, 2:03 PM

Harman/Kardon, man. HK3500. It's right there - in the lower right corner with the big ass speakers, the ones with woofers and tweeters.; 12/12/13, 5:16 PM
