Two-time Renewals

Without any fanfare, the Missoula Public Library has upped its renewal policy from one renewal per item to two (holds notwithstanding, of course).
That means that you can check out a book today and, ceteris paribus, you can still have it at the end of August. That's three months (approximately), or over a quarter of a year.
Just how long is that? Well, it's long enough for an elephant in the womb to grow into this:

Please use your new privileges wisely, and remember: "With great power there must also come--great responsibility!" (Stan Lee, Amazing Fantasy #15, 1962).
