        I think it depends on the subject. Maybe science needs to "sink in". -- nm - nubby Jun 29, 20:06 3
        
        fast can work in science. But if you are confused, and the course roars on without you, you are hosed. -- nm - psilotum Jun 29, 20:10 2

        speaking only for me, I really needed time for it to sink in. -- nm - loosilu Jun 29, 20:13
