Shadow found no trouble with my reading, because he is himselk well read in Spanish.

 
I can't read Spanish. It's an icky language. Aggghh !!! I'd
rather learn Latin. Which I did to some extent a long time ago. Even
French is more palatable.

 
I missed that. Tommy thinks Spanish is the language of Brazil. Tangent:
we have sales reps in Brazil. Brazil has their own governmental
regulatory agency called INMETRO* which among other things controls the
importation of Hazard Location equipment, so most of our products have
Portuguese labeling and manuals. WE been processing our manuals through
google translate and having our reps proof read them, so far it's
workout remarkably well.

Shadow Likely is aware of your claim to have read the entire
"nun"-fiction contents of three libraries.

 
I have read thousands of books. Was my main indoor hobby
before medicine took up all my time. Most books in a library are very
boring and practically useless. I'd never attempt to read them all.
I have also forgotten what I read in thousands of books :)
I write in Portuguese/English.

I had the understanding that Shadow was Argentinian. Even you, as stupid as you are know that the national language of Brazil is Portuguese. And strange that Shadow spoke of readubg thousands of books which would have been several libraries and you weren't smart enough to notice that.

 
You must have very small libraries in America.
Most used-book stores here have over 1000 titles....

Exsactly how do you suppose I became a self taught engineer? By reading a thousand books? Most books are fiction, but tens of thousands are non-fiction. I asked you your profession beforfe and you didn't answer, now you imply without saying that you are an MD. Or are you a nurse?

A doctor, not a nurse. 8 years University (6 to be a GP, 2
post-grad for Infectology).
Worked > 10 years in  emergency medicine, not because it pays
well, but because it's probably the most interesting area. Also worked
for ages as a family doctor, and a couple of years as a psychiatrist
(covering for a colleague with family problems). Psychiatry is boring.
Spent most of my shifts at the crazy place studying real medicine or
programming.
38 years registered as an employee. Lots of years I was not
registered. Bosses pocketed my social security. That's common in
Brazil.

How long are you going to take to forget that?
PS Brazil = Portuguese. President is Lula, not that madman
Millei. That's Argentina.
