Fiction and children's books may go the way of electronica, but I
think fact and history must be relegated to the printed page and kept
as multiple copies in multiple repositories for civilization to
continue to evolve.

colored thick translucent cards like Captain Kirk uses can be made to
work.

Because energy is and is going to continue to be a major concern,
more and
more and more. So in many ways in all of our lives there will be a

reduce energy consumption, not increase it.
LONG LIVE BOOKS!!!
