Man returns library book 47 years late

In a story reminiscent of an episode from Seinfeld, Mr Robert Nuranen is reported by CNN.com as having returned an overdue library book he'd borrowed for a ninth-grade assignment. Only problem for Mr Nuranen was that the book was due back in 1960.

How much was he slugged for the late fees? $171.32. What a bargain! If that were an overdue DVD and he’d been charged $5 per week he would be over $12K in the red!

So there you go, if you have an overdue library book, follow Mr Nuranen’s example!

These type of stories always make the news. I need to find an old book and return it so that I can get some good press.
