Li'l secret - I retain information so well it's embarrassing. As in, has caused me chagrin at parties. People confuse it with intelligence. It's not. Do I retain it as well as reading? Fair to say I do, but I had to think about it. I've read Rendezvous with Rama maybe three times; I've listened to it once. The experiences are comparable, except that reading I can do other shit at the same time (like set up 24TB worth of NAS). I'm 1/6th through this book and I started yesterday. In the time it took me to ride my bike to AAA to pick up Aquarium tickets and drive into Hollywood and back, I've covered 4 hours of it. if I'd purchased it to read, I would have had to pick at it in the 10 minutes before I go to bed.
