There's a lot to be said for this. As a teenager in the early 1990s I used to have Cunard's Sydney office send me their cruise brochures. Lots of dreams there!

The result of that was taking the QE2 from New York to Southampton in April 2008 on its third last transatlantic. Really glad I did that, but without those brochures, I probably never would have.

Same thing with airlines sending timetables and what not to me back in the late 1980s and early 1990s. All of that has resulted in a lot of flying today.
