[QUOTE="DWSmith, post: 573819, member: 5102"] I like The Book Shelf > What are you reading? thread. There's more participation there than I initially would have expected but given the age of the members here I shouldn't have been surprised. I often think back to the many times I've hiked/backpacked, hunted, fished, foraged, etc. and let my mind concentrate on some topic(s). Was I bored? Not at all! Youtube and this website are as close to social media as I get. I rarely check my email. I only check my smart phone if it rings or makes a ding notifying me of a text message. I find myself watching less and less television partly because of the shows that bounce around from topic to topic but mainly because of the enormous percentage of time spent on commercial after commercial after commercial. When it comes to TV I think PBS rules. For radio the Classical station is where I hang out. Very little in the way of interruptions. [/QUOTE]
