This leads me to recall some information I once heard, about a survey
comparing rates of retention from print being read off the monitor screen,
and the identical print off the page. I vaguely remember a huge difference -
like two or three times, I think - (in favour of the page). Can anyone help
me as to the source of this info? Is it correct?

Many thanks
