Mr. Kauffman,

I would like to address one point you made in your article.

Quote:
Had I been told from youth that my literary destination would be some 7 inch plastic gizmo containing my texts shuffling alongside thousands of other “texts” I would have spit in the face of such a profession and become instead a hit man or a rabbi.
At what point in your life did the medium become more important than the message?

Do you believe that any recent communication by Professor Stephen Hawing is invalid because it is all electronic. Should he perhaps be given pen and paper and left to get on with it?

Are we now to start worshiping the hot air coming out of someones mouth rather than consider the ideas they intend to generate.

I think that perhaps you had better buy a gun and start practising.
