Subject: Re: Photoreading??!? NO WAY!! :D

Yup, NO WAY, but remeber don't confuse speed reading with
photoreading, and having recently spoken about automatic behaviour,
it is what we do when we read, Buzan talks about breaking the 'mind
set' of how we were conditioned to read when we were children,

Having a full time job and a girlfriend, speed reading, unfortnately
is the only way i can read the amount i like, in the given free time
i have. I recon, i have at least doubled my reading speed, but that
does not mean that i can remember everything i read.

We are after all, like Derren, only human.

Cheers, Gordon
