I've done a little more thinking about the reading thing. Reading requires a willingness to be open.... to ideas-experiences, sometimes worlds... that does take a certain amount of energy... Sometimes that type of exploring is more often done in one's youth.... He is your younger brother but is not young anymore.(trust me I know I would love to be either of your ages....:) but from the words you relayed he sounds tired with a sense of time &energy limits. I wouldn't take it as a real comment on reading, Pratchett or your obvious affection. Sounds like your little brother has a tiring life. LTA
