I thank all the kind persons that have written the above messages ... for their words full of hope. The disease, apparently, is not so serious.

However, they did not answer the fundamental question, which determines the severity of the disease reported: have you ever scanned a paper book for the pleasure of reading it in an electronic format? The answer for me is unfortunately yes (for the great expense of time for scanning and correcting the OCR).

J have not jet reached the point of "disrupting"(destroing the binding of) a paper book to introduce its pages easily in the fuel system of my scanner, though - I confess - I was tempted. When I will reach this point, I think I will be unrecoverable.

So the questions are TWO:

1) Have you ever scanned a paper book, to have the pleasure to read it in your ebook-reader?

2) Have you ever thought to disrupt a paper book (j mean: to destroy its binding) to copy it more easily with a scanner?



P.S.: For the nostalgic guys of printed books, who want to tie me " to the bed with only a big staple of paper books" and with a fan, j think that it will soon be marketed a perfume with a fragrance of printed paper, that they will spray on the ebook reader from time to time, to remember the old lost times. Perhaps it will be more successful of many parfumes now on the market.
