Again... don't go by the movie... go by the book. He is more richly drawn in the book.

I'll get to it one of these days. I'm almost done with Jane Austen for a time, but starting on some Graham Greene...but I WILL get to Gone With the Wind before, say, Entmoot - so we can discuss it!

Did I mention that the IT office at the college is IN the school library? They have a little office at the back of the best floor for books. Ah...a DEFINITE job benefit!

Don't read that book! It's horrible! It sucks! It was the worst book I have ever read, and I have read at least five thousand books. It was bad! It took me three weeks to read when I was 14 and it was torturous, the only thing that saved me from brain death was reading Dune at the same time.

Die Scarlett Die!

Sorry. I'm over it now. Don't mention that book again, please.

I didn't mean to pressure you, but I have great affection for those characters. The movie is a horrible portrayal of all 4 of them (Actually, Rhett comes off the best in the movie)... so, I just didn't want you not to read the book because of the movie. Even I don't like the movie.
