asaris, you are right - valuing, storing and learning from the experience of others is the one thing that has allowed us to become more than the monkey-see-monkey-do animals that we biologically are. Perhaps I'm getting caught up in evaluating (i.e. measuring against my own experience) those documents before I accept whatever they may have to say, vs acknowledging that those second hand documents have vastly enriched my own experience in the way that you describe.
