I didn't like it and don't have any interest in reading it again. Because there are so many books I haven't read yet that hold the promise of being better.<br /><br />(I would recommend that people of certain political persuasions who think they would like the book to actually read it so they know what they are talking about.)<br /><br />What was it about?

Will that monologue ever end?!?<br /><br />But yeah, you can have a utopia for all the doers of the world and only them if you can just suck energy out of the air for free. And be totally logical. etc. Ignore that those last two might conflict.srsnoreply@blogger.com
