Excellent post. Not many people read as much as they should nowadays with so many distractions such as the internet and tv. Everyone should read at least 30 minutes per day to help sharpen the mind.

I think if people realized that many great TV shows and movies get their inspiration from books, and that by reading those books they can get so much more out of a story, it would be much easier to convince people to read. When I find out there's a book that a film or show is based on, I make every effort to read it especially if I like the show. But you're right, it's much easier to watch something passively than actively read a page and process the info. I think I'll always love it though.
