Aw Man

I just found out that my Borders is on the list of closing stores which will leave me with only B&N which was actually here first. I hate to say it, but I hope that they have some major markdowns.

They say that e-books have played a major part in its downfall but I'm still one who loves to read from an actual book. What kind are you?

I'm an actual book person. I love the smell and feel of them and I have to stare at a screen for 8 hours to read. That's quiet enough for me.

I'm more saddened by the impact it's having on libraries. I told someone the other day that if I taught English I would make people bring me in photocopies of their source material because I think there is a lot of working things out and research skills being killed by allowing everything to come off the net.
