Keep dreaming

The post office will exist as long as there is a federal govt

The younger generations are returning to books. The tablets and readers do not give the same feel. The youngsters I know are returning to books

Music will always exist. Even now they are remastering on vinyl

Yep. It's constitutionally protected. Of course, so are a lot of things that are largely ignored, now.

That's right! Everything old is new again.

Vinyl record sales have been skyrocketing, recently experiencing an annual growth of 10 percent, according to The Washington Post. More than 9.2 million records were sold in 2014, according to Time. By 2015, sales had jumped to $416 million, the highest level since 1988, Fortune reported.

Sony plans to bring back vinyl records

I know several "seasoned" individuals who have no access to the internet or other electronic means of paying bills. One of them still uses Princess phone.

The post office and military are the only constitutionally mandated things. I don’t see either going.

My children and most of their friends are avid readers and they all have stopped reading the tablets and readers and have returned to real books.

When I have talked to them they say they like to have a book in hand rather than a tablet and also they can more easily go back to a previous page to re-read something than search for using a tablet.
