Older people are growing more frustrated with print every day searching for items that are intermittently migrating to the Internet. One glaring example is advertising by movie theaters.
My mother nearly ripped the State Journal-Register to shreds looking for the movies this Sunday. She grabbed the Illinois Times and was frustrated with that too. She saw a movie advertised on television that piqued her again. "What's the point of advertising a movie on television? Once they come to Springfield we forget about them! We never see them advertised and then their gone!"
Older people have lost sight of the changing stream of communication. There is still a need for print as long as there are people still alive who were born before 1950 who never adopted new technology. They still have their pensions, remember what a pension is? It's a salary they used to give to retirees for the rest of their lives. Don't tell me they still have them, if you think you're getting one your being duped.
Anyway I digress. If anyone here in Springfield consistently prints movie schedules for theaters in Springfield, leave a comment on this blog, I'm sure there are a lot of people still around who might subscribe to it.
