Back in the eighties ( during dial up internet access ), the big wigs predicted computers would cut way down on paper use.

I like picking up a piece of paper and reading it instead of some tiny screen. The wife has a Kindle, but I still buy paperbacks at the book store, Get a Sunday paper, too. I'll buy'em until they stop printing them.
Long live paper.

I'm with you. I much prefer to read printed materials. I mean, I read things online out of ease of access most of the time, but books and anything I really want to dig into I will buy in print or print out from online. But I am also an active reader, marking up what I read, jotting notes in margins, sassing the author, etc.

Still get the newspaper delivered and read during my morning constitution daily.
It keeps me regular !
