Thanks. :-) Really I was just solving the problem at hand -- it was either do something like that or grab the third-closest book instead of the closest.
Hmm. [looks around] And the third-closest book is a dictionary. Huh. (Fourth and fifth are novels, and they are within arm's reach, so if I'd wanted to cheat, I could've grabbed one of those...)
