Quote of the Day: Welcome to Night Vale
From "History Week" (episode 7):
"The results of a recent survey of Night Vale residents came to light this week. The study found widespread dissatisfaction with our town's public library. And when considering the facts, it's easy to see why. The public computers for internet use are out-dated and slow. The lending period of fourteen days is not nearly long enough to read lengthier books, given the busy schedules of all our lives. The fatality rate is also well above the national average for public libraries. The library blood stone circle does not appear to have seen any maintenance or cleaning in some time. There are reports of a faceless specter moving about the biography section, picking off lone browsers one by one. And that biography section, by the way, is far too small and has been oddly curated: containing thirty-three copies of the official biography of Helen Hunt and no other books. From top to bottom, the public library is a disgrace to our fair city and I can only hope our city council does something about that soon. Or I may find myself hoping that the faceless specter puts the library to the same mysterious violent end as its many victims."
