Frank Is Looking for Work in All the Wrong Places

Frank came across an article about the fastest shrinking jobs in the U.S. for each state, and he speculates on the causes for the loss of those jobs. Telemarketers in Colorado, Missouri, and South Dakota? Motorboat operators in Florida? Telephone operators in Illinois, Michigan, and Utah? Word processors and typists in Mississippi and North Carolina? Private detectives in New Mexico? Fortunately “WTT commentator” was not on the list.

Thanks Frank - interesting. We are still are binding books, more than ever before, all thanks to new technologies like computers and digital printing. Example, photobooks, POD etc.. How would I know? Talk to suppliers of our industry. They report new record sales of book components.
Loved that edible paper segment. It went around the World.

Frank, like Werner, I also enjoyed the segment on the edible paper. Now edible and taste good may worlds apart from each other. I recently, bought some paper from a mill in central Canada that had vegetable and flower seeds in it. I planted sheets of the paper as a Lions Club project and by golly they grew. Now you can eat the vegetables that grew out of the planted paper sheets. Maybe the Japanese edible paper is for people trying to lose weight?
