Where do you fall in poll of U.S. reading habits?

One in four Americans read no books last year according to an Associated Press poll released Tues., Aug. 21, 2007.

Among those who said they had read books, the median figure -- with half reading more, half fewer -- was nine books for women [per year] and five for men.
The figures also indicated that those with college degrees read the most,
and people aged 50 and up read more than those who are younger.
