If I bought the archive, what would I do with the 30-inches of shelf space all the hard copies take up?

Well I’m not big on digital magazines so to speak , however I got a flash drive of the archives from Mr. McKinny . My reasoning it’s much easier to carry that little bitty flash drive when I travel via air then it is to bring a stack of magazines and of course when I fly I ALWAYS have a laptop along so the flash drives a no brainer.

That's a new twist I hadn't thought of. Good thinkin' Craig!

However, to avoid the possibility of losing the flash drive you could download the entire thing onto your hard drive and never be without it.

The hard copies are the best by far but the PP Digital Archive has a much faster retrieval system... like instantaneous.

The most recent Parker Pages was excellent. I especially enjoyed Mills Morrison's piece on the history and current uses for some of the low country plantations not too distant from the Cheeha River. Archibald Rutledge in all probability trod some of the same ground during the hey day of river rice plantations in the low country. Keep those articles coming.
