Yeah. Teachers can only do so much to encourage reading. How many high school or college teachers do you remember being excited about the books they were requiring their students to read? I remember one. A British Lit teacher in high school who let small groups pick our their own reading material. It was nice to be required to read, but not required to read a specific book.
Nekokami what's your favorite Harlan Ellison short story? I've met him a few times and he's an amazing character.
