I'm mostly giving Tim shit. I've read quite a bit of Rand and nearly
everything by Heinlein. They really resonated at about age 15. Not so much
anymore, but I'm not at that rebellious point in my life anymore.
The grok book is Stranger in a Strange Land. I have a leatherbound version.
Again, I used to love it. Now it seems far too sexist and 70's new-age-ish.
