ROFL

As if being a best seller has anything to do with literary merit.

Wasn't saying that everybody has to like it, just that many do...

A lot of times it is the converse, isn't it?"The Secret " was a Best Seller too.

*I guess I'm in trouble for Blaspheming against "The Book". :rolleyes:


The secret was a Beatles song, right?

You asked for a Hip, Savvy person to answer, but if you like I'll give it a shot anyway...........

Like most futuristic predictions, some will and some won't. I don't know where that answer falls on Time Magazine's list.

These pages of Snowcrash will come true: 14, 65, 88, 90, 105, 144, 165.

The rest of it will not.

Also page 6 of the latest Time magazine contained one truth in paragraph 3.

But did the bagel really exist before you labeled the yeast that surrounded the hole?
