BLUE is the colour af the more conservative parties ,Tories Christian Democrats etc.

Reading has been my main hobby for over 50 years.
The last few decades it has become easier due to eBooks.
My failing vision is less of an issue, and the cost is a lot more reasonable.
I think that if children are rationed on screen time, that should not include reading ebooks.

I read mostly Science Fiction, and a little bit of history.
Preferably Space Opera/Galactic Empire/ space fleet and alternative history.

"mega-readers (11+ books per year)"

LOL I have read at least 5 books so far this month (from NEW to READ) plus reread some old classic by authors like RAH

You put the batteries in the caboose. Instead of needing a fast recharge, you pull the caboose off the train, and shove on a fresh one, then go and park the old caboose somewhere where it can charge for 24hr

Or maybe you have the 2nd car of the train hold the batteries. (remember in the days of steam trains there was a coal car next to the loco)
