<p>I remember a great line from the 90s on the topic:</p>
<p>"you can't grep paper!"</p>
<p>Unfortunately I prefer physical books/paper for most
circumstances and uses. It is *great*, however that I have at
my fingertips a huge collection of electronic documents formatted
(usually) professionally, both online and downloaded. Riches
beyond my imagination 20-30 years ago.</p>

It does look like a good read, though your
reminder is a good one. I wish<br>
there were a decent app for predicting the value
xyz information will be to<br>
me, how well it will synergize with other
experiences. OTOH, I know I would<br>
get bored if my path were known to me. Ah, but I
am very happy to have a pdf<br>
copy of John Lee's text on smooth manifolds!<br>
