Thank you all. Yes I have books but sometimes the internet you get more inforamtion and cheaper!
Internet is good for information, yes, but information by itself (even if always correct - which it often is not online) is not the same as knowledge, or wisdom, nor does it invariably lead to them. Something about books make them a much better medium to convey or lead to those more rarified levels or understanding. The advantage of advancing age is having seen entire generations learn both ways, and this Luddite has become firmly convinced that there is simply no comparison.
In bonsai, our own trees are our best teachers - spend your time with them. A bonsai teacher is next best - if you get a good one. Books such as Naka's and Koreshoff's are next best. Internet is a very distant fourth, IMHO, useful mostly as an entertainment, at least for this old codger.
Folks will likely think me a pretentious jerk for the following, but let me propose a test for anyone who thinks their mental landscape is improved significantly by learning things online: Google "Aristotle's Metaphysics" and see what "information" you can learn, spending as much time as you like, even weeks or months. When you finish, pay attention to your mind, and what it is like. Then go to Amazon and buy a good translation of Aristotle's Metaphysics ( a hardback version with decent binding is best, so you can easily lay it out flat to underline and write in the margins as you make your way through it), AND get the Dumb Ox Press edition of Thomas Aquinas' Commentary on Aristotle's Metaphysics as a companion volume. Wade (or struggle) through those two books for a month or more, and when you are done, pay attention again to your mind! Compare it to what your mind was like after the Google search. Nothing you will ever read on a computer will do that to your ability to think. And when you can think, you can transform information into knowledge, and knowledge into wisdom. This is what has been lost.
Great books - like those of Naka and Koreshoff in our field - can do that for you. The internet cannot. I await your flames.
