GEN: Buffy needs an e-book

[Jackie Church <WstWdMac@AOL.COM>]

Hello again -
Did anyone catch last week's season opener of Buffy the Vampire Slayer?
(There's no rule against talking about that show here, is there? no -- I
checked the archives....)
I almost thought Giles was going to leave the show -- taking our leading
contemporary media role model out of the public eye. But he stayed in the
end....(he feels as underappreciated as we sometimes do -- he just needed to
be needed) .

But, the most interesting thing I thought was him finally scanning the old
texts into the computer, because the information they contain is vital and
needs to be preserved . . . And, be more accessible, I thought! That's what
they need -- an e-book with all that stuff on it!  An e-book doesn't exude
the same atmosphere as yellowing, old, leather-bound tomes, but it's a lot
more portable!  (Hope they keep the tomes, though... reminds me of some of
the books on our shelves)
