Alex.....I agree that we lost the ability to more dynamically interact with the material in electronic format compared to written.

but what do you mean reading is slower on a computer? If we're just talking the photoreading step, I can 'page down' MUCH faster than I can physically turn pages. I can photoread a 200 page book in maybe 2-3 minutes. The same material electronically? If I wanted I could page through it in 20 seconds.
