I agree with you 100%. Trouble brews when people are illiterate, but unless you're pursuing a literary career, there isn't too much use for reading fiction. Nonfiction has its own benefits that attract anyone who wants to learn in gener

Could you explain a little bit more about #1? What would an example of holding an abstract thought in your head be?

Does anyone else think it's weird that we make up artificial goals for some company, so we feel like we can tell it what to do or make a comment? Like here we're talking about the assumption that Bing wants to knock google out of search or

Don't use a search engine to look for it either, or visit websites related to it from a browser or location that could be tracked back to you. And don't leave voicemails about it to someone with google voice, or talk about it to someone usi
