      There is nothing that can compare to the feeling of a book. No piece of computer hardware can change the feel of paper as I turn a page. The joy of print, art, and text that continue to promote the art of printmaking and bookmaking won't go away. It is tactical and personal. Yes I can print a hard copy of what I need, but it does not replace the comfort and ease of reading on a piece of beautiful paper with fresh ink and the careful layout of perfect type. I celebrate these artists working on paper which when made well lasts over 500 year. I pray my disc lasts a week. Collapse
