This is my next book I'm reading, the first one using speech ever, because my iOS device doesn't do Braille.
Although it's a bit vertigo reading a book without Braille I'm glad I can now just purchase the book from the store as soon as I heard about it, no going through a special service or getting a potentially-compromised scan. It's on the iOS Bookstore at $9.95 ut I wish Kindle would make these accessible for people without iOS devices.
Anyway bet it'll be a decent read expressing much of the frustration many of us have had for years. Maybe I'm starting to stink with age or something, but while I used to think "dumbing down" was just a platitude, I now think people are now really getting dumber, and are celebrated for it.
Anyone else read this book?

I finished it: Great book, and guaranteed, you know people it exemplifies.
