Well the sad truth is that I don't often actually sit down to a book. I do quite a bit of article searching now that we have google and PubMed and the like and I skim loads of books by listening in on what Janet is reading, missing bits here and there it is true. A subscription would go unused most of the time, when I want something I want it now because by the time I get it I want something else. Life is so much less complicated now that I have passed the dating phase!!!!
