@paulgowder The Thomas Guide is back. Why seemingly obsolete map books will publish for 2022 [note - books are never obsolete - technology is inherently out of date the minute you buy it - you do not own tech you bought only a revocable license to use it ] #ThomasGuide https://news.yahoo.com/thomas-guide-back-why-seemingly-223242951.html #Maps #HardCopies #KM #Knowledgemanagement We make #knowledge with our brains along with those of other humans - without us - no #AI ah the #irony - #AI consume #books - everyone else throws them out, :-(
