ipso facto big green tracto

in the past few days, i've had reason to look up information as diverse as the 1972 presidential election and the composition of the german army. in 72, nixon won in a landslide, and in germany, they don't have an army. well, they sort of do, but they say they don't. kind of. anyway, i was needing info, so where did i turn? wikipedia, of course. that place is a veritable sasquatch of information. but, how much of it is reliable? and, for what's not reliable, well okay, i am willing to look elsewhere. but, where? where? wha? ere?

it would be so cool if someone would publish, like, a set of BOOKS and in those BOOKS there would be RELIABLE INFORMATION in the form of ARTICLES on a wide VARIETY of SUBJECTS and those subject ARTICLES would be ALPHABETISED so that ANYONE could easily LOCATE the necessary INFORMATION and that INFORMATION would be RELIABLE.

to recap: RELIABLE INFORMATION ORGANISED IN ALPHABETISED ARTICLES. in BOOKS. on a SHELF.

why can't we have that? huh? why? why?
