How true, the web was a much better place years ago when displaying
images was an option in the browser. I agree with the saving web
pages, especially if you might want to go back to the information.

I have a ton of good homesteading information on my computer, that
I've started to print off and save in binders.

I'm a believer in disruption of the grid. If there is an extended
period of no electicity, I'll never access that information again.

I enjoy the communication and fellowship that email offers. The
information on the web is great. I think that in general, the internet
is going to propel this trend of being dependent on machines and is
definately not going to promote self-sufficiency.
