I have an LJ account now thanks to you. I don't know yet what I'll do with it, other than be signed in when I read your posts. My (15, 17) daughters will look at me funny, also.

Looking forward to the eBay auctions (I sent a note).

Nice (short) article in the new WIRED titled "A New Hope for Books" that draws the comparison to the "paperless office" nonsense. Not that all need convincing; those of us who got our first high from sneaking around in Brentano's and sniffing new Bantam paperbacks will never abandon ink and paper.
