My entire generation is filled with people who have never read a book since high school. It used to baffle the hell out of me, and then I learned about how bad the lead saturation in our environment really was back then. Not to mention just how bad the bullying was. Seriously the GPA and graduation rates of my high school precipitously improved just one year after my graduation year. Between the "whole learning" fad in the 80s and lead, it's a miracle I can even spell my own name.
