Encyclopedia Britannica is 250

[Eva Elisabeth]

Fascinating - makes me feel somewhat sentimental and old. Such different times. It needed awhile but I do appreciate instant endless up-to-date information available at any time, and that electronic devices save a lot of paper, hence the info (and other) comes also eco-friendly. I still need paper when it comes to study, memorize, or understand complex contents (and then would also print out Wiki...) I loved to thumb through and read the "Brockhaus" (German "Britannica") for pleasure - and the thumbing through is something the internet lacks.
My fellow students now are of the generation of those elementary students and never really experienced those days without internet and computers. (And three TV channels only, all public, serious, and not broadcasting at night...)
