Link, though? Or is this from some...what's the word? dammit, my half-senile granddaddy was just yammering on about it the other day....um..."physical paper"? does that sound like a real thing? I'll check with him next time he's lucid, but I'm pretty sure he was saying they used to have sources of information they could actually hold in their hands back when he was a kid, and he called it "paper". People hear that word all the time in phrases like "paper tiger" or "paper trail" but most don't know what it used to actually mean.
