Bob, you mean well, but in the event of a nuke or emp event, I doubt you’ll be worrying that you can’t access an electronic encyclopedia, or comforted that you can still read the print edition

It depends. You may think that the world disappears with an EMP event, but it doesn’t. Short of a major nuke exchange between us, Russia, and/or China, life will go on and we (hopefully) will build out of it. But things will be much, much, different. Yes we will have computers again, but they will be hardened, and we will have paper backups for everything, including text books and encyclopedias.
Anyway, we’ll likely find out well before the end of the decade.
