I certainly find GOOGLE AI searching extremely fruitful. It helps nourish and revitalize old interests without undermining my old BOOK browsing habits. I dread seeing BOOKS that I read 50 years ago disappear from public libraries and even state college libraries. Sadly, there was evidence for this last time I visited the Adams Library on the Rhode College campus. I have not visited the URI library for years where I liked to browse old periodicals :" Life Magazine", " Readers Digest", " Time Magazine" , " Science Digest". Even old " dated" Science and Math books.I recently joined the legendary Providence Athenaeum where lurk the ghosts of Edgar Allan Poe and H.P.Lovecraft. And there is an old fashioned card catalogue! Human curiosity survives every level of technology.Except perhaps TV? My high school history always referred to it as " the boob tube".
