What bugs me the most about it all is not who's going to win, book or ebook, but the fact that some generation, sometime, will never learn calligraphy.
Calligraphy is the first way of learning the fine motricity skills that will tell one if (s)he's an artist, an artisan or a surgeon for that matter. I know my drawing skills come directly from my first realisations I could manipulate a tool, in this case a pencil. Further down the road I took to the gouge and I love carving and it is not very different from drawing.
Who cares about handskills nowadays anyway...
Ecarving? Hmmm! I guess they call it CNC programming now.
