I never offer to lend a book, and a cold shiver comes over me whenever someone asks to borrow one. I've lost more good books that way!

Here's the real LOL moment in that entire article, however:

"Ms. Broughton says she can't recommend the Kindle to people who aren't technically savvy ..."

If operating a Kindle is beyond someone's expertise, how can they possible be expected to read on a netbook or a PC? With a Kindle, all you have to do is turn 'em on, download a book, and start flipping pages. How "technically savvy" do people have to be to do that?
