Well, excluding the final and "optional" step of RR, yes. On that book, it's one of the last ones I have ever previewed, but as time moves on, I feel that I phasing out a few of the things from within the system, feeling as if I don't need them. You don't need to preview.

After that, I went through it in photofocus twice. Once upside down, and right side up. During activation I would really not even intend to skip paragraphs. It just felt natural. I didn't feel as though I was really going "fast." But then I looked down at the page number after a little while, and saw that it was a very high page number. (Forget now, but something like 75-120.) Only about 5-8 minutes had passed into my activation session. By the end of it, I was able to finish off the entire book.

This story is one of my most remembered, because it was one of the first ever times that I had gone through a book that fast, and gotten that amazing comprehension.

Many PRers probably have these memories. Like the first time they experience spontaneous activation, or after photoreading the dictionary, the word:

disestablishmentarinism

pops into their head. (No, it's not a word! I'm kidding, but read it carefully! It could be! )
