I still grab the free newspapers every time I am in the airport as I still love the look and feel and to flick through them. And I sometimes buy a paper when there is an iconic headline and keep the paper for historical record. You could say I have a historical blockchain made of paper :)

do you check back often to confirm how wrong everything they said was?
Yes I often check. More surprising than how often they got it wrong is how the people who got it right were ridiculed at the time. For example people who talked about the internet were mostly ridiculed in the early days

Oh that paper is available in many cities but it looks to be disappearing one by one. Already dead in Montreal :

On the day each of his three children was born, my dad saved a copy of the local paper. I still have my copy.
