Ken, as a reader I can't help but agree with that last post 100% give or take. I read a pile of publications and they are indeed a pile as my wife can attest. I read them mostly for entertainment and consider new information and knowledge a bonus and quite frankly, there is a lot of these "bonus" tidbits to be had.

Once you have read enough of a certain authors work you come to understand their personality, angle, preferences and subtle ways they hint information. Granted, there are writers that aren't worth alot, but I work with individuals that aren't worth much eigther, and so it goes.
