How we ever managed without the Internet for research to such mundane but important for detail stuff like name of character in episode four is beyond me P I've got a book of quotations, an old copy of MovieHound and a the Concise Oxford Dictionary; these have largely been replaced by quotation sites, IMDB, and electronic versions of the COED - although I love my dictionary and fiercely defend the necessity of some paper based resources and books in general :D
