I have moved all my meetings to paperless as well.
HOWEVER, I do enjoy my magazines such as POCA and Aviation Consumer in hard copies.
There is something about the tactile experience when reading a good article or the photographs of a quality print product.
It is not like we do not have the money.
I would like to keep hard copies.
Thank you,
David Finley
