Boog, how many of those were required reading for you in school?

I'm pretty sure the first two were on mine, & just shows to go ya how science fiction becomes science fact, Fahrenheit 451 showed up on #2 son's req. list last year (I copped him a lightly used copy off Ebay).

I know that To Kill A Mockingbird has been taken off the required reading list in Nova Scotia schools. A teacher isn't even allowed to recommend it anymore, from what I understand. It's still in the libraries though, I think.

To tell the truth Scotz none of them were for me. I read them all in my mid to late 20's on my own.

Kinda like Huck Finn has been banned from assigned reading lists in the US. Something about using a PI word...
