John:

Time to come up with some strategy for separating your comments from
comments you are responding to, or were you just arguing with yourself?
<very big grin>

Look below and I'll show you how I do it.  :)

There isn't a home printer made that can come
close to producing a document as good as (for example) the current CC we
get in the mail. 

Then get a better printer!  Mine is more than capable of producing a
print-equivalent copy at minimal cost!

KNW - To match the Communique you would need to use a higher grade of paper
than standard printer paper.  A heavy coated paper would raise the cost
considerably.  You would still end up with an unbound stack of papers.  I
don't know what weight the Communique is printed on but the club magazine
whose Policy Committee I serve on for the Newfoundland Club of America
requires 70 or 80lb coated paper to give satisfactory results for printing
on both sides of a sheet.

And I'd rather do without than go the home-printed route.
And I refuse to do without. 

So no matter what CORSA does concerning the CC, they better figure on
keeping the printing press warmed up. 'Cause I'm a die-hard paper copy
reader..... Everybody, bite the bullet....

KNW - Many people like the aesthetic appeal of printed material.

-Happy for you.....but the reality is that no one is obligated to cater to
your rather odd fetish, particularly when the costs are considered!

KNW - There is nothing odd, or fetish-like, about preferring one medium over
another.  Since the last data available to the club indicates a preference
for printed material one might suspect that your preference is odd.   <grin>

KNW - A really convincing argument from a fictional character.  :)
