Timing and tuning out

Re “Going to Extreme Measures,” Column One, Jan. 2

Eleven minutes to read a two-page article? Are you kidding? Who has that much time? I read that article in seven minutes. If they started a new reading comprehension game show, “Name That Time” (in the vein of “Name That Tune”), maybe I should be a contestant. Oh, oh, my timer just went off; I have to end this letter now.
