So supose I claim that "heterocycles can have many nitrogens but only
one sulfur or oxygen in any ring" and cite page 1176 Organic chemistry
Clayden, Greeves, Warren and Wothers ISBN 0-19-850346-6. Now the book
exists but your local libary may not have a copy so it takes time for
you to get it. That is quite a lot of effort (fortunetly in this case
the book is a fairly standard text book so there should be at least
one other person who has a copy). This gets really fun when someone
decides to reference something that can only be aquired from the
public records office.
