as essentially a 'techno dope' too, this is all very well, but....
on the other hand, yeah, anything that puts up a small barrier to just

but when only 5% of the population reads any books, & only a small
number of that group reads what was once known as 'literature', I feel
I must needs stick with books, as a kind of calling, perhaps....
