May I respectfully call the the attention of the Board that nobody has cited a single instance of the above quotation having any merit whatsoever. It is a piece of burbling balderdash.

your claim may well have some merit, bill.

but I will cite one instance in opposition, which may be a special case. I have had occasion to recommend a volume of some weight to friends only to be met with weighty questions I had not considered upon their completion of said volume. in such circumstances, when rereading the volume in question, one surely will learn things about his original reading, and perhaps himself.
