Hmmm, let's do some math. You do know about math don't you? Well if you read 3 books every week how long would it take you to read 13,000 books? Well let's see--13,000 divided by 3 books per week divided by 52 weeks per year equals 83 years and 4 months to read 13,000 books!

An SD card with 13,000 files placed in a card reader on the fastest desktop PCs or Macs available would take a long time to be scanned. If you think the same SD card with 13,000 files should be quickly scanned by a device purposely designed with a slow processor expressly for reading eBooks and you cannot see the major flaws in your thinking, then your mother raised an idiot, and the idiot is not one of your siblings.
