Absolutely! My followup question would be... What number other than zero
could you rationally choose to represent the offset of the first book? I
would say there is none, regardless of the fact that there is nothing
preventing you from choosing any other number.
So repeat after me: ...the index of a series is an index, not a count...
...the index of a series is an index, not a count... ...the index of a
series is an index, not a count... ...the index of a series is an index,
not a count... ...the index of a series is an index, not a count... ...the
index of a series is an index, not a count...
Hey... it's going to take a while to get rid of that other brainwashing
we've all been exposed to ;-))
Cheers, Ken.
