How many people make phone calls and how many people read books? I tell people I don't have T.V. in my house and they ask what I do in the evenings. When I tell them I read, amongst other activities, they sidle away like I crept out of a piece of cheese. Seems most people think of reading as an odd thing to do.

I realize that the above doesn't comprehensively answer your argument so let me have another go. Giving people a thing that they can read on will not make readers of them. We all have a thing we can think with yet most of us do precious thinking with it.
