too fucking fast. i was speed-reading decades before it was developed into a discipline, and am so quick at it that i often have to re-read a book two or three times to assimilate the information it contains.

more or less this. I don't speed read, but I do read quickly. Helpful in some ways, unhelpful in others.

I used to speed read, but now it's about the same speed as a person talking quickly...
Man, I used to write well too before becoming addicted to forums and shit. I feel dumb.
Apparently INT is a stat that can drain over time. Maybe I've been acting out of alignment.

Don't lower your INT points, pick the "intense training" perk next time you level up, and don't get addicted to rad-x or psycho.
Ok, Fallout gags are lame....
Speed reading is shit for the proper digestion of info, but it's unavoidable when you have to read volumes of shit. The real trick is being able to pick key info and either note it physically or mentally as pertinent and return to it later for mulling over.
I still have not mastered this skill.
