I believe he is referring to me attempting to "bring things back around to the original topic"... but I could be wrong.

Well, for my experiences, watching a lot of movies makes me really slow in programming. Or maybe it was just a coincidence... dunno. Anyone else has same experiences?

Yea. The premise is retarded. Internet makes us stupid, as opposed to what alternative way of wasting time, exactly? TV? No, reading his books, I presume. His books, as opposed to internet, would make us smarter. Because if you are wondering if internet is making us stupid, it is a lot smarter to read opinion book rather than look up something online.
