Did Captain Sully Lose a Library Book in the Crash?

Is it true Captain Sully called his local library to let them know a book he borrowed had made an unexpected visit to the Hudson River?

We, er, checked it out, and that rumor has wings! And the library was so impressed with the Captain's honesty, they waived his lost book fee! The Fresno State library also dedicated a replacement copy to heroic Captain Chesley "Sully" Sullenberger! It gets better -- the book was about ethics!

The Captain also broke news in an interview with ESPN, saying that the moment the engines failed, it was the silence that was shocking. Since the crash, Sully and his wife have spent many evenings in tears reading all the emotional fan mail.

I LOVE SULLY— HE’S A TRUE AMERICAN HERO—- I HAVE SAVED ONE MAN’S LIFE- HE SAVED 154 OTHERS— I COULD RELATE TO HIM AND UNDERSTAND HIS DRIVEN FORCE IN FAITH— THAT IT CAN BE DONE.

This does support the fact that we need our pilots to be well rested and sober. Experience helps too. If he were a young hotshot like top gun he would never have had the expertise to set that plane down safely in the river.

In light of all the tax scandals Maybe Obama should hire Sully as the ethics officer for the Whitehouse.
