You think that will forever be available or that there won’t be a possibility of a breakdown in the system or that the operating system will be compatible decades into the future or that anyone will know what is there or how to find it if you died unexpectedly? You have a lot of faith in technology. I am afraid I don’t.

How does one plan a road trip without a physical map? I am talking about a road trip that isn’t a straight drive from Point A to Point B. Rather a meandering drive, wandering around from one sightseeing site to another. You have to be able to pore over a physical map, studying all the parks, wildlife refuges, museums, scenic roads, zoos, etc in an area in order to find what is available and where everything is in relation to each other, then figure out which routes link everything up. Can’t do it on GPS.

I may be unduly worried but if I have written something that I would like to have forever, I print a hard copy. With constant updates of phones and technology in general, how can you be sure that you won’t lose something you want for the future—devices crash, software is constantly updated, things get erased? Seems like insurance to print a hard copy for something you want forever.
