Speak for yourself.
Most people I know would pick a book over the telly anytime and would never even suggest that you "get everything you would have out of a book" from watching TV. I guess it just depends how you look at it. [img]smile.gif[/img]
[/QUOTE]I agree. I might watch a film now and then but I don't get as immersed as I do in a book (on the rare occasions I read them LOL!!) These days I read more instructional books (Graphology, martial arts techniques, etc...) bt once in a blue moon I'll grab a fictionial book (usually sci-fi)
