jsokohl -at- mac -dot- com wondered, "why the need for physical dictionaries when dictionary.com and other online

Not all tech writing environments are conducive to online dictionaries.

And there's something both reassuring and prestigious about having a solid, complete dictionary in your hands or available on your desk/shelf.
