- Thought Dune was okay. Tried Messiah; hated Frank Herbert forever.

- Have read Brave New World a good half-dozen times.

- Have read Flatland at least three times.

- Read Jennifer Government once. Meh.

- Added Freedom From Fear to the reading list. Not available as audio.

- I should read this. I've read every other Heinlein juvenile and enjoyed nearly all of them (Citizen of the Galaxy being my favorite). My family worships Heinlein like a god, though, and my family annoys me.

- Will start with American Gods. Aversion to Gaiman from a psycho ex-girlfriend that obsessively collected Sandman comics.

- Not a software engineer or mathematician. Learned to program in Turbo Pascal and Fortran. Talk about a waste of time.

- Not keenly interested in asexuals. I would need to be convinced.
