It was never my intent to promote the idea that textbooks will never be 
seen again.  Rather, that they will be used less in the future due to 
the concept of the internet.  I could see books in literature, some 
math, or basically courses where information is a constant.  In my 
vision, I just don't see books as dominate as they are today.  I see 
this happening in our life time.  How we teach is going to be very 
different in terms of our resources.
