We already have a variety of web-based and email-based newsletters and
publications.  They're excellent at preaching to the converted.

Sadly, paper publishing has a legitimacy in many eyes that the Web
doesn't have, yet.  This will hopefully change, but it's not quite
there yet.

It's roughly analogous to the whole e-books thing; if they're so
great, why aren't decision-makers reading them on the bus?
