I am only partially embarrassed to say that I need to read Mark Steyn's columns at about half of my normal reading speed and that I usually have to check an online dictionary at least once with every column. Not even counting the new words I invariably learn, I find that taking the time to fully understanding whatever he is saying is always worthwhile.

So glad to hear that. I usually reread several sentences over and over again until the light bulb comes on. His writing skills are much better than my comprehending skills. Wish I hadn’t attended public school.
