I just thought I needed to clarify something.

The conscious mind can only process 7 plus or minus 2 bits of information. It's one of the reasons why we have to use strategies to help us remember numbers greater than 9 digits.

The brain itself is capable of much much more. They are talking in the realms of 2 billion bits of information a second.

Traditional reading is done using the primary conscious memory which is the limited tip of the ice berg of brain functioning.
