Be the Reader You Want to See in the World
I appreciate Meghan Cox Gurdon's 'Put Down the Phone and Pull Out a Book' (op-ed, July 23) and exercise a 'bit of countercultural aggression' myself on occasion. When at the car dealership or medical office I ask those around me if they would object to my turning off the waiting room television so that I may enjoy reading my book. Replies invariably range from 'not at all' to 'please do' to quiet smiles of approval as I turn the TV off.
