Re: REF: Online verses Print

You must realize that The World of Iris was published before the Internet 
came into popularity and long before anyone knew about DVDs.

I am disturbed by the idea that printed books are no longer needed when the 
same material can be accessed online.  I still want to have the actual hardcopy 
to look through at my leisure.  Technophobes fail to realize, also, that not 
everyone is using computers.  There are many irisarians who haven't felt the 
need to own a computer. While I am on "iris," I have not subscribed to the 
online checklist because I don't have that much use for it.  I, also, don't have a 
laptop to take to shows and sales, so I just take the books.  I, also, don't 
have a DVD player and don't plan to acquire one in the near future.  It is 
wonderful to have all kinds of information on line, but computers are not 
infallible and should not cause the end of printed matter.
