No offence Apu, but when they were handing out religions you must have been out taking a whizz

Pretty much anything written by Heinlein is "required reading", but this one is definitely a keeper. I lost/misplaced my hardback edition several moves ago. Originally read it about 20 years ago - need to grab a new copy and re-read it.

Read?

When I was at the Presidio of Monterey I read Hesse's Demian in German, twice. I have no idea what that book is about.

No shit...I was at Fort Ord and a neighborhood friend was at the Presidio learning Russian. Until the army found out he smoked weed.

Between that and the little red book they were the top "had-to" read stories back in the 60s - we had whole church movements based on that book that just knew in the future there would be so much govt intervention as to really change our way of thinking - hey it really came to pass didnt it

It was funny that when we discussing the book (not in school - they wouldnt have allowed it back then) the major differences that came to light between the people that got it and those that didnt - sorta like the old animal farm story - some people still think that was just a story about animals on a farm LOL - (linkster goes off singing Beasts of England to himself)
