Jim said to Scottie: "Because books ARE non-human artefacts. A book is a
bunch of papers piled
up together with blots of ink on them."

Try telling an archaeologist that a book is a non-human artifact. (A
non-human artifact, if it's worth pointing out, is an oxymoron.)

And that aside, I am thankful that books are more than paper and ink.
