I am not trying to hijack the thread. But since reading and such has been mentioned. Do you any of you have a hard time reading a book or text book and absorbing the information from, but say your sitting in class you have no issues when your asked to read a section out of a book or off an overhead projector.

One of the things I have noticed about myself is I am not a bad reader because when I am asked to read something to a class or to a group of people I am fine with it. I read with no stops or stutters. But if I was asked to tell someone what I just talked about or what was contained in the reading I just Read. I do not not absorb what I read. I just see what is on the paper read and everything is fine as far as that goes. But actually absorbing what I read is a whole different can of worms. It is like my brain charges a toll for absorbing the information and storing it away for later use. Most of the time the toll is to much so it does not get payed and I forget what I was reading. Anyone else experience this?
