Obviously you do and quite a lot at that.

Pot, meet kettle. You’re doing exactly what you denigrate the author of the article for doing.

I thought this a poor article because the author denounced ereaders while knowing virtually nothing about them. However, I’ll do him the justice of assuming that he enjoys reading what he reads and that’s why he reads it. Just like you, in fact.

A mild admonition: Please clean up your language. Asterisks are not sufficient sanitization. Thanks.
