I'm sure this guy will come around as ebook sales continue to climb. He won't want to miss out on that revenue stream. ESPECIALLY as the royalty percentages to authors are larger with much of the digital publishing realm. In any case, he sure made himself sound like a tool. I'm not even talking about the 'hitting a woman' part, but just his fear of ebooks in general. Sounds to me like people who used to rail against computers and "swear" they'd never give up their typewriters!
