I read Dan Brown's "Angels and Demons" (hardbound, print version, not audio book) in a single fucking day. If they can't read 99 pages in three they need to resume schooling at whatever grade school level they quit at.

Source: have a solar plant on my house. I can see the generation statistics for the last several years - at worst, I see a 50% reduction on cloudy days. Oh, and guess what? System designers account for this.
Here's someone else's anecdotal evidence
Quote:A 100 watt solar panel will output around 10 to 20 watts on a typical cloudy day.

To be honest, it's likely more about comprehension than just reading it, because it's going to be more complex than a fiction novel.

300 pages/day vs. 33 pages/day. They have plenty of fucking time.
