Seriously, the guy likes a hard copy to read. What's the friggen problem. Maybe he reads it in bed, at the table, etc. and doesn't want to set-up wireless and use a laptop. I hate laptops and could never use one.

Maybe staring at a screen for hours hurts his eyes?

The guy doesn't want to deal with a 10,000 page PDF and would prefer a hard copy. OH NO!! Let's just drag him out back and shoot him.

MoneyGuy's post was informative and I agreed with his assertation that some people just need the paper copy. My memory is wired a little funny and when I remember something that I read, I remember whereabout on the page it was. In the middle, toward the top, at the beginning of a large paragraph...
Reading something on a computer doesn't lend me that same ability.

As for paper wastage, I hope all you guys get your bills electronically and have told your bank to stop sending paper statements. And Rogers. Tell them to stop sending the 14 page bill with every call you made that month.
That's a waste of paper and it's also a security risk for identity theft.
Its already been said but if he wants a hard copy why doesn't he just print one off?

Just because they are delivering the reports by email doesn't mean that is the only way that he can read them.

And of course his comment of getting internet at his house isn't just ignorant it unbelievably stupid.
