And site bookmarks all over their computers, with so many categories they can’t even find anything. (I’m close to being there myself, right now! But at least I don’t have stacks of paper).

Wrenchwench-
I bought and kept Time, Newsweek, USNews magazines for:
1. Nixon
2. the assassination attempt on Reagan
3. Some other events through time.

I figured some day it will be interesting to look back at the coverage of things then, compared to whatever is current.

I kept my Letter to the Editor that got published in the LA Times in 1976. I was in high school. I was chastising some Dow executive for an editorial he wrote about how we don’t need to worry about air pollution.
