I'll agree it's interesting... but there's one chapter about 3/4ths of the way through that you can just skip. You don't need it. You'll know it when you get there. It's nothing but one long speech and there's nothing new said in it, so just save yourself the time and flip ahead to the next chapter where stuff starts happening again.

christ. it took him 3 hours to read it. from my stop at wawa 15 minutes from home, all the way back to work the next morning(1.5 hours) and all the way home again (1.25 hours) and there was no new information.

this part, though seems to be the real message of the book. if you just want her message, and politics, you could just read that part, i think. it's just really dry. I may actually re- listen to that part at some point, because there were a few times when things he said clicked.....but i was so drowsy from work, or the rambling manner of the speech, that it didn;t stick with me. it reminded me of one of radar's more lengthy posts about libertarianism.

I wonder if she wrote that first built the novel around it and then didn't delete it when it became superflous?
