Yass, with my own multidimensionally vast intellect, I too naturally
find TV incredibly boring and slow (the stories seldom feature
more than five or six concurrent plots), but with some Puccini
in the background and by stealing a glance now and then at my
pocket chess to help me visualize solutions for some of John
Nunn's supergrandmaster mind-cracking chess puzzles, I'm okay
until I rest up enough to get back to my transfinite math studies.
Yawn, it would be so great if a visual medium like TV could
really be challenging, but then, as Marvin Minsky used to say,
it would be the death of everything we know.
