Oof 300 pgs. I'm lazy. I think I'm already convinced of it
  though. Are there additional points you can think of beyond the
  "repeat repeat repeat" deluge of media that I mentioned above?
  My secret shame: I hardly ever read books, fiction or
  non-fiction. Rather, I ask people who read the books and found
  them interesting to give me their synopsis and i go with that
