I'm pretty ignorant of Rand, I couldn't get thru ATLAS SHRUGGED, FOUNTAINHEAD, Etc. I did manage to read a book her ex-lover (I forget his name--he was younger than she and had a wife, I believe...) wrote about her years ago and he portrayed her as pretty nutty. Maybe that's just him, though. Sure sounded like she had control issues.
