I'll grant a good deal of peripheral accuracy. The trouble is the "details" on most of the historical figures are fabricated.

Codex generally refers to one's former codes, hence 'code ex'. OK, I see in your face that you're not convinced.

Because clearly you say gfex and not ex-gf. Maybe if you actually had a girl ever you'd know this.

Codices are a subset of books, not the other way around. Also they don't need to be ancient. Basically every book you own is a codex.

while technically correct, the best kind, common usage usually reserves it's use for vellum/parchment, hand written, and hard bound books.

Library would be one, or like you said, a waiting room. I'm sure there's other examples. Some small coffee shops are relatively quiet. +1

I laughed too Im in an open plan office - its pretty quiet but full of people - does that count as a public quiet room?

Sounds like a bit of an oxymoron, but I suppose a doctor's waiting area would fit the description.
