AGREED (on both counts ...)! I think pruning is essential (if painful ... I have a visceral connection to my book collection). I also think that it's how one source leads to another.

If you're writing/speaking/miming ... REFERENCE YOUR SOURCES!!!! It's scholarly honesty IMO ... but more importantly it allows your audience to go to the sources for themselves. This is critical if you believe in the advancement of knowledge. However, most of the crop of pseudo-experts I refer first of all aren't (experts) so the actually don't know the sources beneath the one book or speech they're re-presenting and claiming credit for creating ... and next, they aren't actually interested in sharing or advancing knowledge, they're interested in marketing.
