Not surprisingly (to me), NASA came to the conclusion that the PR technique doesn't work. A person using PR actually takes more time to reading in order to comprehend as much as someone reading normally (we're not talking about skimming techniques here, which are the only useful thing i found in Paul Scheele's PR course).

That experiment was a crock. The researcher documenting the experiment was a research trainee and didn't even know how photoreading worked. Do you know what that person was testing for? The person was testing if the people could read at 25,000 pm! What an idiot. The photoreading expert supervising the trainee didn't even supervise certain experiments because they were ridiculous.
I've got this information from AlexK from LSC. She recommends experiment with the photoreading system yourself to see if it works or not.
