    The major news channels are much like espn to me at this point, pure and utter nonsense. I try to watch as little as possible, and get it online.

    Yeah I tried the Kindle thing and it's "OK," but it still doesn't read the same as a dead-tree book - harder to focus, harder to get into, can't read nearly as fast. It's really hard to put my finger on why.

    i think it has some to do with the feeling of the book as you get closer to the end, and the visual of the pages gathering on the left adds to the climax imo
