I understood most of this except for the part about reading. What is that? Reading? Sounds familiar but if it involves using your eyes and the image does not change at least every 1.7 seconds, it is boring. How about we take the books (that's what people used to read) and convert them to action scenes that we can play back and listen to people talking? All those little marks (punk-chew-a-shun) make reading extremely difficult. I could go on about that but why?
