Do you like to read magazines or books?

There are some magazines I bought because I was interested in the topic but I never actually read them, and now I realized that even though it is interesting, it is like reading about the past that may be different now.

I like reading really old magazines, newspapers and books. I found a stack of old university newspapers in the attic of the house we lived in and read them. The controversial questions they asked students at theun were much different than today...back in the early 60's they were taking polls asking if co-eds should be allowed to wear shorts to class or if women should smoke on campus. Today the questions are about things like politics, war or social issues. I also found a stack of newspapers from the 1930's and read them and was sort of surprised at how much was known about Hitler and yet nothing was done about the situation until after Pearl Harbor, it was building up so many years before then.
