Why stop at Sound Off? Why don’t you put the whole New Haven Register online and save the paper?
I’m so weary of the “Information Age,” in which the news is relegated to the void of the Internet, and then “they” have the audacity to say “for your convenience.” For who’s convenience? Certainly not for the multitude of people who have no access to a computer or are computer illiterate.
There are many of us folks who are not computer dependent, nor do we care to be. That does not make us stupid or poorly educated. Personally, I graduated from a university when cordless phones first came out. Math computations in high school were done with a slide rule. In elementary school, you learned to do multiplication and division with a pencil, and yes, we learned a script called cursive. I’m not saying that we’re adverse to change, it’s just that we’re used to change being an improvement. I had to use “snail mail” (stamped envelope) to get this to you because I can’t fax it anymore now that you’re online. Is it too late to make the Register the way it was?
