This sounds like a thinly disguised plea to save newspapers, if you ask me.<BR/>"Please, oh please, let's save these young folks from themselves and be sure they read words printed on paper."<BR/>Never mind that they go on-line daily and absorb more information than any newspaper could ever contain. There is no information in your newspaper they can't elsewhere.<BR/>And who are you to proclaim that "46 percent of adults have read a book this year" as a dismal statistic? <BR/>Do you care how many films they've watched. How many TV news magazines they've watched? How many times they've accessed the Smithsonian website online?<BR/>Face it, the concept of words printed on paper is rapidly going the way of the horse and carriage. The telegraph. Vinyl records. <BR/>All were precious in their time. But all were replaced by something better.<BR/>Embrace the internet. It is your future.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7481907982012685430.post-6647815193723169232008-03-18T14:22:00.000-04:002008-03-18T14:22:00.000-04:00Terrific, helpful story by Nick Azzara and Grace A...Terrific, helpful story by Nick Azzara and Grace Agostin.
