Which is the reason I am going out to get another armload of 2 & 1/2" ring binders after dinner, I'm going to convert it to dead trees. I did not see a place on their site where I could purchase it, and I did spend a few minutes looking. Their version would likely be way more compact than a binder full of 24lb paper and I'll use up $40 in ink & $6 in paper to do it this way. With the hassle, I'd be ahead to buy it for $60 or so.
