Well Marty, I guess that depends on your perspective of near death and what that actually means. For me, the roses are eight months to ten months away. They should smell sweeter by then anyway.

Well, I was wrong. This "new technology / cartel of publishers" goes way beyond just supporting the 2d graphic design industry. Take a look.

I also have to point out here that in Tarmac's response to Martex up above he started out with "Well, Marty..." which is what Christopher Lloyd said a NUMBER of times in the BACK TO THE FUTURE MOVIES!

Coincidence? I think NOT!

So would that make Martrex (aka Marty) the spitting image of Michael J. Fox?

On another note and to reemphasize my point that newspapers and magazines and print journalism in general are dropping off like flies, I just found out that Editor & Publisher is closing after 108 years. Damn.
