E-books are more portable and environmentally friendly. I can carry many books within my e-reader and read them at any time or place.

I prefer the convenience and easy portability. Feel the same way about video and music (streaming vs. physical products).

I tend to binge read books and read while traveling. I can size the print and put them on my iPad, thus saving space, though I do miss the books in my den/library.

My eyes are not as good as they used to be and e-books allow me to listen to the books I like.

I prefer audio downloads, CDs, ebooks in that order. I've tried to get the library to get more downloads and CDs, but they don't seem to listen. It's much easier to have a book on a Kindle.

Because the library does not do what you would like does not mean the "don't listen." It means they are trying to serve many patrons wanting various things.

Traditional, please!

But oddly I'm starting to prefer digital for comics.

Safe parking programs have a proven track record of successfully taking people from being homeless into having a place of their own. Safe parking programs cut down on costs to cities for ambulance calls, police calls, visits to emergency rooms and mental health crises that costs taxpayers money.

Perhaps? Hiding the un-housed in various random locations doesn't solve much. This is just another band-aid solution! Seems just the latest adaptation of "kicking the can down the road"...?

People should not have to put up with annoying intrusive lights that inconsiderate neighbors install
