What benefit did you get out of that photoreading in the bookshop Alex?
The reason I ask the above is that I do like to browse through Waterstones bookstore every so often and I cannot afford all the books I would buy. I did photoread 2 books 3 yrs ago when I first learnt the system but I did not perceive any benefit. Now I assume the reason is that I needed to activate. If that's the case, how did you benefit from the hour in the shop? :-)
What experiences afterwards did you have that confirmed it was a useful hour?
P.S
There seems to be a hell of a lot on the net that say photoreading cannot work by the way.
Some of it apparently is to do with how fast we can really process the written word and some of it is to do with the speed with which we can store such information in the brain. (I hesitate to use "subconscious" as it's still a theoretical construct)
The supermemo site in particular points towards particularly negative, nay even pessimistic viewpoints; albeit though they are trying to sell you their rote learning software that is.
I assume this is something you've already come across however.
