>I thought that improving their vocabulary and attention span (among other things) would bring them closer to humanity
It won't.
>end up very knowledgeable on a lot of things (especially by branching from fiction, to reading a lot of non-fiction)
More knowledgable, maybe. Pivoting to non-fiction is a stretch.
>Also the title is much better than "r9k book club"
Can't argue with that. I just took the name too literally, thinking you claim to have a cure for retardation.
>I generally have a pessimistic outlook so I'm never disappointed
Strange for someone who just preached a lot on hope a post ago, but I guess that's a way to live as well. I, btw, generally have an optimistic, hopeful, opportunistic outlook but tamper my expectations so I don't get hurt or surprised. Hence over analyzing.
