Are there an unusually high number of opticians and chiropractors in your town?
i would detest have to use electronic textbooks for working/ studying.
kids seemed to adapt to it easily, but yes I agree with you, I hate staring at a screen for my work.
also, there are some studies that show note taking by hand on paper has better recall in the long term memory storage.
its nice all that paper is being saved though honestly. now if only government would move to a LAN based, redundant offline backup done every two to three weeks, and all government, state, federal, local, was also paper free... I can't imagine how many trees would be saved. probably a fucking lot though.
I never used to like ereaders, but the Kindle Paperwhite has grown on me so much that I actually prefer it now over a regular book, its e-ink though, so not like a regular screen at all. its very comfortable on the eyes.
