Heh, well, I agree actually. I read somewhere that books are like food -- you enjoy them now and don't care about not remembering them in the future.

But the point that I was trying to make (I'm the author of the article) is that I actually had no clue what I read, even though I read it like days ago. And I think that's crap, honestly :) Especially given the type of the book that I was referring to.

And that seems to be the source! Thank you! :)
