ps, if you read the list i posted, you'll probably turn into an ASKE
 Shocked


What's wrong with that?


most people would say... " a lot "


I see a couple on that list, that are "classics" of American Literature.

You have a doctorate.

What's wrong with wanting to be like Aske?

Forgot my Heinlein

* Job: A Comedy of Justice
* Stranger in a Strange Land
* Time Enough For Love
* The Cat Who Walked Through Walls

A very quick scan shows no mention of War and Peace.  And you won't get it from me.  For a book often rated the best novel of all time I find it dreadful.

And that's w'out throwing any Greeks into the equation; Plato, Aristotle, Aeschylus, Sophocles, Euripides, Aristophanes, Herodotus, Thucydides, Plutarch, and of course Homer and Sappho.
