		Re: The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)
(...) No, not at all. I honestly meant what I said. It's just that some of your terminology and phrases were way above my head. See the two paragraphs below for further examples. But to be honest again, I didn't realize you were researching (...) (23 years ago, 29-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		Re: The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)

Chris's words seem pretty clear to me... there seems to be a statistical link (a correlation) between poverty and education level, to wit, people who (...)

		Re: The Free Super Chiefs (I Called LSAH)
To make all of us happy: I called LSAH and the lady told me all was okay, this happens often. If I wanted to pay for them I could but I said i'd rather keep them for free or have them sent back at the cost of Lego. She said, "keep it then." (23 years ago, 21-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

Y might be phrased as _not_ Z which means that X and Z are (...) (23 years ago, 28-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)

		The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)
Hi all, First, thanks Suz for the great thread idea and sorry for pointing it away from the main point. Second, I'm replying to myself because I thought it would be the lowest-impact way to respond to a bunch of comments. Third, I'm leaving .general (...)

To Allan, Chris, and all others interested: My humorous input: I must say that I simply could not live without reading LEGO Idea Books.... <grin> Okay, now my less humorous input: I think I will have to side with Allan (based on his previous post) (...)

(...) You'll have to forgive this member of the laity, but I'm kind of unsure what you're saying here. Do you mean to say that even when a link is shown to exist, there is no explanation of it's cause? I'm having trouble with this..... perhaps you (...)

		Re: The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)
I'm going to make an assumption here, knowing that I could very well be wrong. I don't think that Chris was trying to say that reading is obsolete or inferior to other media, I think he was just trying to pose different sides of the argument... I've (...)

Hey Y'all: I had no idea where else to discuss this issue -- and this group seems gadget and technology interested enough to suit my purposes. Anyway, here it is...

		Re: The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)

		Re: The value of reading (was: If you could leave any book on Kjeld's nightstand...)
<BIG snip> As an avid reader and attendee of literary (and other) conventions I really want to weigh in on this subject. I believe that reading is an indespensible tool for learning and growing in the present. There are two things I get from books (...) (23 years ago, 26-Mar-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
