Being an IT guy makes you not use real pens or paper? The amount of cope for this guy is unreal. That's just stupid.

Handwriting is more intimate and allows for better expression through the script. For something so personal, it sounds perfect. I love handwriting, do it regularly and I've been intimate with computers more than once ;)

As an IT guy: I love and hate handwriting things. I get the point about intimacy but especially for longer texts expressing many connected thoughts I would never do it by hand. Being able to edit text, switch around blocks of text etc etc is so ingrained in me that doing this by hand frustrates me greatly.

Yeah, I didn't like taking handwritten notes (until I got an e-ink tablet) during lectures because of that.

Though as I started doing audits I got better at writing with proper spacing and anticipating where something is missing, so it gets better.
