Hi Ian

I am afraid the article didn't make a lot of sense to me but then again I'm 
not an academic like Lavery. I see he puts down speed reading as a poor 
relation to "book gutting" yet at the same time admits he freely lied about 
reading Walden while at the university and even clipped quotes from the book 
to impress others. (Does that remind you of anyone here?) Kind of funny that 
I read the same book in less than an hour with near 100% recall.

I guess I just don't get the point. Perhaps you could help me out. What drew 
your interest to this article? How does it relate to the MOQ?
