You do not get my point.
Dan Brown is NOT a good writer. He has no greater ability than any one of us, he's famous for it.
My point countered his in that gaining knowledge does not mean you CAN re-use it, that you WILL, or that you'll do so with any great effect.
My word.

That, again, depends on the PERSON'S ability and what they get OUT of it.
You could try and try, but it doesn't make you any better.
Reading many books doesn't automatically give you any skill, you suggest it does, and that is factually incorrect. Dan Brown has studied more books, he's still not a better writer than some of those on this site. Shadowsworn is a better writer than Dan Brown.
You are actually stupid. I'm not gonna refrain from saying it any longer. You're an idiot.
