I was disappointed that the NYT reduced its page size a while ago, though have gotten over it.
Actual print has advantages, too. For example, I can read the WSJ at Peet's cafe drinking excellent coffee even though there is no wifi access there. And, I can scan the stories much more thoroughly and quickly in paper.
As to saving and searching articles--imaging and online searching really are faster. But, for coffee shop reading, give me newsprint.
As for advanced age. you and I are advanced, but it is not in age.
