���Paul Bernhardt enlightened me that >A Kindle is an e-book reader marketed by Amazon.com.
Thanks, Paul. Annette gave me the same information directly. My ignorance may be put down to a general tendency to be tardy on catching up with the latest technical wizardry, plus the fact that it's only recently arrived in the UK: BBC News 7 October 2009 "The European version of the Kindle will begin shipping on October 19 with a $279 (£175) price tag." http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8294310.stm Allen Esterson Former lecturer, Science Department Southwark College, London http://www.esterson.org --------------------------------------------------------------- RE: [tips] Dropkicking Malcolm Gladwell: Steven Pinker Style Paul C Bernhardt Sat, 14 Nov 2009 10:23:06 -0800 A Kindle is an e-book reader marketed by Amazon.com. It suggests that he read the book on his Kindle, so he was saying the equivalent of, "gnawing on the pages of the book." Paul C.
