Aghhh!! What happened to my Borders?
In the mid-to-late 90's it was a glimmering hot spot. A dating place for geeks. A bit of a pick-up joint. Every weekend night (and most of the weekday nights) the line to the cashier snaked back to the magazine racks. Every section was stocked with the latest.
And now?
I guess the Internet happened to Borders. And the Kindle. And the Nook.
Sad, but that's the way of it.
Still a good place to visit, but mainly for those who can't hear the echoes of the crowds that used to inhabit it.
