Nationwide survey shows that a growing and already large percentage of adults never have read a complete book after high school.(Pick some number that sounds high - that will be about right.) I also lament this change, but I can’t feign surprise.

98% oh high school graduates have never read a book and will never read a book because they can’t read!

Sadly, it goes the way of many a book store; even the major chain stores. Books are friends that many ignore, preferring video and electronic devises. To hold a solid print in hand is akin to holding a treasure, a ticket to world travel. Alas! Well, Half Price Books and Abe’s Books are still on our streets and become our future destinations.
