    Buckley was the exception to the rule, and he was exceptional. Sorely missed.

    Nor do enough people read in the traditional sense. It's all headlines, short superficial articles, and...uh, 'posts'. ;)

    Reading and writing are two sides of the same process. You are what you read.

    Texting and it's related events like tweeting are, as I said before, bringing on the demise of written language. Soon enough we will all have to write at the level of the average sixteen year old. Like, OMG! LOL!
