There definitely was a time in my life when i read as little as humanly possible. I would even make attempts to memorize driving directions by terrain features in order to limit my fragile eyes' exposure to the poisoned print of road signs. After needing to drive one to many places with my eyes completely closed i decided that the endeavor may be a little bit more dangerous that i had originally estimated. And before anyone starts thinking "..and that's why we can have nice things" i did have the scaled-down prototype for my giant robot project feeding me directions with a series of beeps, whistles and taps, to assisted me through the ocean of text in crowded metropolitan areas. Always thinking safety!
