[Chuckw]

I have read the book at least 8 times and I have the unabridged audio book, which, as I recall, runs about 64 hours.... I have been trying to get my wife to read it and have been unsuccessful so I thought I would try to get her to listen to it as we were driving... She got through two discs and it simply did not interest her. Oh well...

Part II of the movie will be out this Fall (before the election) I did not feel that Part I did justice to the book, but who would want to see a 60 hour movie?

I don't think that the theme of the book will ever get old because the dynamics of the clash of the producers/takers will probably never change.

I do not believe that it is possible to read this book without thoughts of the current political environment in the world today.

A most enjoyable read.
