To ‘e’ or not to ‘e’ – that is the question                       

Whether ‘tis Barnes & Noble or Amazon
As the supplier of this outrageous ‘e’ tool


Or to take a stand against a sea of plastic

And, by opposing, end it.  To read, to read

A real soft or hardcover made of paper.  



OK, will not push my luck in a play on words with the Bard.
Cannot see myself purchasing one of these cold and impersonal devices in the near future - I like to dog-ear my stopping off pages and drop them on the floor beside the bed when my bleary eyes close.  Can't do that with unyielding plastic.  But if one were to find its way into my Christmas stocking, I may give it a try.
