I have graduated high school and college and I have never read a book.

I have tried on several occasions but I am just not able to do it.

You're missing out. :) I am at least 10x more knowledgable now than I would have been if I wasn't a fiend for reading.

You can't graduate high school and college without reading a single book. Unless you got your degree from the University of Phoenix?

Do I need to send Lou Ferrigno to your house to tell you "Reading Is Fundamental"?

I can't read books cover to cover either. I start skipping pages and chapters :) I'm too impatient. Print isn't a fast enough interface for me.

Or learn to read faster. Print is a fast interface, it's just that it usually offers much more content than your average Hollywood movie. In that way, you get closer to the characters and the story. With movies, I feel I've divorced the story immediately after leaving the theater.

That was true at one time, but today you practically have to quit school in order to not graduate.
