Unless, of course, we become much less physical people than we are today. There is something very reassuring about holding a book in your hand, flipping through a magazine. I don't get fewer magazines now that I can go online for a lot. But I may be old-fashioned. They said that about good old letters, too. When was the last time you wrote one?
