i hate this "printed word" bullshit. words are SPOKEN with MOUTHS. let me stand around with my vilage and gossip after news has been delivered through the town crier. there only needs to be one scroll per town, why do we suddenly have little sheets of stiff fabric that we bring into our homes and that somehow last forever, even when the world has moved on? when your family gathers at the end of the day, you don't talk about the news any more, you just hand them a "newspaper" and they read it themselves??? ABSOLUTELY SOULLESS.
