It’s Factoid Friday! If you own or work in a shop, you probably had a few (or more) Mitchell Manuals on your shelves. That’s what this month’s Factoid question is all about: How much shelf space was needed to hold the full set of 1999 manuals? Go here for details and to make your guess: http://www.mitchell1.com/shopconnection/?p=10803 -- it’ll take you less than 2 minutes. If you’re correct, you could win a $25 Amazon gift card!

According to the contest keeper "his guess of “about 40 feet” was the closest answer we received. The correct answer was 51 linear feet".

I think I guessed 146 fl. I thought your library was much larger. Hate it when I assume about the size of things.
