Laurent has decided to read all the time. I've ended up doing pretty much the same (I recently discovered that I've read approximately 80 books within the past 5 years or so, a vast majority of them probably within the past 2 years -- that's an average of 3 weeks per book). In fact, I'm currently reading again two books at the same time. The other (smaller) one on my way to and back from work and the other at home. But I'm not even close to being the worst book addict living on this planet; I know a guy who reads books while driving a car. Ok, not really while driving a car but while sitting in stop lights. And those books are some of the freakiest titles a man can buy. Anything from software engineering to astrophysics to South-East Asian cultures to biology to nanotechnology. Enough to make my brain cells dump core...
