Paper magazines & newspapers are a dieing commodity. The electronic age is upon us. Paper magazines & newspapers will all but disappear in my lifetime. Using paper for the purposes of magazines & newspapers is a heinous waste of resources when the internet has permeated our lives so completely. I find most of my automotive information on-line and I rarely look at paper magazines.

With the above said, I will miss those days of curling up with the latest issue and reading from front to back several times. There was a time in my life when I had my collection of magazines memorized from front to back. I could glance at a cover and tell you what was featured inside. I could go to a car show with my parents and tell them what components were used in that car's motor just from recalling the article I had read in Car Craft. Time marchs on. Sorry if someone from this board is caught up in the turmoil of this issue.

Yea, and as I remember computers were supposed to create "the paperless office of tomorrow"... how did that work out? lol
not saying that it won't eventually happen, but computers don't yet have the portability and other attributes of magazines.
