Kaczynski. It is important to know those whom you oppose, if only to be
prepared for the tricks people of such mindsets might try; they will
certainly attempt to understand you, so that they might exploit that
understanding.
Thanks, Joe. I've read some of the books you mentioned, and have studied
the Old and New Testaments, as well, for information's sake (being an
atheist myself). I know what you're saying, and I agree. Working full
time, it's difficult to keep up with the several-books-at-once I have as it
is ... you know that saying, "So many books, so little time." We bookworms
sorely need to be able to upload whole libraries - or else be able to live
forever! (but will The Hunger cease then? ... aaargh.)
