That was a cute strip, and the limp iPad remark will go down in the history books, I am sure, well-crafted, Mr Trudeau and inkers, but don’t give up. In fact, I wrote a song on You Tube now video called “I Just Can’t Live (without my daily snailpaper)” and I call them snailpapers, newspapers, because they arrive on our doorsteps each morning with news that is 12 hours late, usually, but I still love my snailpaper and I hate reading on screens. In fact, I called reading on a screen as “screening” since it is not really reading per se. I made a YouTube piece about screening too here…

I busted my gut when I saw the cartoon when I printed out the page proof yesterday! And I normally don’t like Doonesbury. It is also sad, but true.
