    If the electronic device ever replaces the book, I would probably explode. Fortunately, that will never happen. Not if I can help it.

    Great bunch of comments.

    Typewriters went long ago (too many problems) but books will never go. At least as long as there are those of us around who love to read them.

    As someone who had a huge Beta tape collection, VHS, now DVD . . . . WHY would I change a reliable source like a BOOK for some new technology??
