LanDroid:Do you plan to read the book? I might be tempted to pick it up and read it if I had someone to discuss it with. Then again, there are about a dozen books calling my name. Don't you wish you could set a book on top of your head and in a few minutes have the wealth of information trickle down into your brain via osmosis? Heck, I would walk around with books for hats all day long.Chris Edited by: Chris OConnor  at: 10/30/05 3:43 pm
