Not trolling, but you must be in the minority if you read. Take a walk through a typical High School. How many kids do you see eager to jump into reading? What about College? That's how the world is, take it or leave it. I don't read, because...I don't know, it hurts my eyes for one and two I get extremely bored. Where's the excitement? The quietness of reading just isn't for me, I need to do something exciting.
