Here's what a trivial define request came back with.
define:book rule double - Google Search

define:Ground rule double - Google Search

I can bring a much more definitive source to the tournament this weekend.

Otherwise, why not just accept the fact that we KNOW the difference between a book rule double and a ground rule double, accept what we are telling you as the truth as explained by myself, Mike and others, and can have verified by the Local UIC, the Regional UIC, the Deputy Director of Umpires, the Director of Umpires, the Director of Member Services and can go out, dig up Bill Klem's grave and have him tell you that what we are telling you is correct.

Don't make me hit my head on the wall out of frustration on this one...
