MR has gotten me to read fewer books!
It seems all I do these days is reading MR threads
So by this last post for today I'm off to do some book reading... |

Can't you multitask?
You know, readers are great as you can hold them with one hand , no pages flipping over. That still leaves the other hand for using the mouse and typing. And a true multitasker can use the left eye for something different than the right eye. |

I think I've partly solved not being on MR all the time. Track your favourite poster by RSS and set it up on your phone. Me addicted to MR no way
