I’d enjoy swapping points of philosophy with her, although I would always address her as Mrs. Palin or Gov. Palin, not “Sarah”, as so many FReeper do. If I called her Sarah, the next thing I’d expect to see would be Todd Palin’s fist going through my face.

Billthedrill and I might have to do a national book tour like Sarah Palin.

She had a mega-bus and an entourage. We got a beat-up pickup and a stray cat I picked up in Boise. And some beers I threw in the back. We're gonna need one heck of an advance team...

yes, I just might suspend my reading of part three til it arrives in a few days. Finish part 3 with your book & I then will read the whole book with it

Great!

Just ordered! The excerpt alone was excellent, and I’m sure the whole thing will be! Well done!

OK, great. I enjoyed reading the chapter discussions during the Book Club. Just ordered the guide.

Recently I had occasion to meet Andronico Luksic Craig, son of Andronico Luksic, who died in 2005, leaving his family fortune listed by Forbes as 35th richest in the world (1st in Chile).

I read about him and wondered if he’d served as some sort of inspiration for the character of Francisco d’Anconia. Certainly Rand would have known of Luksic.

Well, how about that. The Freeper book club produces an actual book! Will have to get this soon. Congrats on the hard work!

You may have something there. BTW, isn’t Steerpike a character in the Gormenghast trilogy?

The best book clubs produce actual books. We couldn’t have done it without our fellow FReepers.

More than that, he was the best character.

It would be a great thing if the "Atlases" did shrug.

Many Might Mouse entrepreneurs who have amassed enough money to buy a place in a remote part of Tennessee might shrug, but the people at the top won't ever shrug.

All they'll do is lobby a willing government to cut them enough slack to continue to thrive in an ever more centralized and collectivist society.
