Seasoned,
Daniel Tammet? He's amazing, I read a book on him a few weeks ago. Really tremendous stuff.

Reaching a limit? I doubt it. It's like how you process loads of information while driving in a car near the countryside, or by a forest. Has anyone reached a limit from doing that? No, at least not that I know of. It's just processing of visual information, no matter if it's text or images.

Kim Peak is a savant. I think he can do it because of the way information goes into his brain. The lack of a corpus collasum? Maybe it's caused him to only take in information through his right brain. But he can recall, which is amazing.


Captain,
The brains purpose is to lead its system to survival. If it wasn't safe to process so much information at once, I doubt that many nerves would be in place to process the information.
It is safe, and I've been doing it for over a year. So far nothing bad has happened to me.
Pete Bissonette has been photoreading since 1985, and I'm sure he would stop if he found something wrong with it, and would either fix it with Scheele or would notify us to stop.
