(a) I have two copies of MBOC
(b) They are different editions
(c) Parts of the earlier edition have been rendered invalid through the last 20 years of experiments
(d) I really need to get rid of some of my college and grad school books.
Anyone need something to prop up a wobbly coffee table? Or maybe some kindling?

Never fear, Design Sponge is here, with two (TWO!) DIY crafts using old books: 1) book bookends http://www.designsponge.com/2011/10/diy-project-book-bookends.html and 2) http://www.designsponge.com/2011/08/diy-project-vintage-book-travel-tech-organizer.html
Also, are you drinking because, OH MY ZEUS, it's kindergarten time.
2 copies of MoBiooftheCell! Rejoice!
If you ask me, that copy of Voet and Voet's Biochemistry is your immediate problem. Nightmares. I tell you. I still have nightmares. The Kreb's cycle generates how many ATPs again? UUUUUGGGHHHHH. Shoot me now. ;-)
I also have 2 copies of MBOC, the red one and the silver one. I bought the red one in college, and then had to buy the silver one in grad school b/c the red one was obsolete. Yet I still have them both. Oh, and a copy of GENES VI.
I don't want to open my Voet and Voet book. And you can't make me.
And Annie -- if you include glycolysis, the answer is 36. (I didn't even look that shit up.)
Deanne, that is scary, but not surprising. May I borrow your brain?
Matt was tested on biochemistry in his basic science class in Optometry school last term and I just rolled my eyes. NOT AGAIN. ugh.
Lastly, Ashleigh, I just came back to this post of yours because I saw something on pinterest that made me think that maybe, in a totally geeky way, it would be cool to frame some particularly awesome figures from old textbooks if I ever get rid of my own 2 copies of MBOC. Just tossin' that out there.... =)
