<grin> Well, one time I did attend the Evelyn Woods Institute, but they
kicked me out of class for staring at the secretary's legs.
I assume you wish for me to speak more on the subject of speed reading?
Right? Course, you dooooo...
I did a speed reading course once. It was forced on me. Before the
course began I was the slowest by a long way of a big group. But in the
comprehension test, they were, as group, a long way behind me. After
the course, their reading speeds jumped even further ahead as a
percentage of mine but their comprehension grew less as a percentage of
mine. Slowcoach dorayme remembers this with pride.
In one of "Hancock's half hour"s later TV episodes - I know, you have
never seen or heard of it, never mind - he was seen reading a book at
the beginning of an episode - it might have been Bertrand Russell's
History of Western Philosophy. After the clock's hour hand had spun a
few times to indicate the passage of time, the camera panned back to how
Tony was doing... he was still on the first page or two!
