Reading is good if targeted, but for the most part . it is a space filler - more entertainment. Most of what people read has very little practical value to their lives except maybe being able to have a conversation on a topic. However, that isn't real knowledge, it is repetition. The most interesting conversations are with people who love what they talk about enough to live it and, those who love to think enough about what they love to form their own opinions on it. Rare breeds these days.

The question then, my friend, would be directed by whom? I think that life is a self-discovery for the most daring. I agree people like the ones you describe have always been oddities forever.
I feel that they are becoming ever more rare, as people start to consume the same, talk the same, like the same - globally syndicated information.
Bad symptoms, very bad symptoms ...
Oh yeah - directed by whatever makes profits. It is a feedback mechanism that keeps feeding itself.
