Hmmm, I used to be very quick at reading... (quick at everything actually). Somehow, and don't ask me how, I was able to read so quickly I would understand the whole page by merely glancing hastily. I hardly read the words: it's more as if you... it's not about reading words, it's about "seeing" them and being very fast visually and mentally.

I too will simply say, indeed, it will probably take time and practice to learn. And the method I had may not be what is normally deemed "speed reading" but... well, I can't think of a name right now.
