Default RE: Internet killed old style model magazines?

They said video would kill radio in the music world, but I think the internet with itunes and pandora are putting a whippin on radio more.
Sites like this are much better than a mag. I have a pretty thick collection of old mags some going back to the 30s and when that was all you had, it would be pretty awesome. Now we can ask a question directly to someone who has built/flown/used the same model/radio/power system and get an answer in minutes.

Kids are indeed distracted by all kinds of activities. It's pretty hard when you have to tell your straight A athletic kid he can't play "game" for any more than an hour a day with the logic it will rot your brain.
My kids love my shop...when they want to work on something, which isn't near enough for me.
