I don't know how many people are actually reading this, I could be the only one...but if you are and have any type of questions or want to point somethings out, I figured this could be the place to do it....



I haven't read much but here are some of the lines that I've like so far:

"The great contemporary terror is anonymity" - talking about how people feel like they need to be known (via tv, radio, youtube, facebook...)

"Orwell feared that what we hate will ruin us. Huxley feared that what we love will ruin us." - Huxley's argument being 'man's infinite appetite for distraction' prevents you from getting truths.

It's real interesting.


Here's another fact in the book:

Today's average American will have spent 9 years in front of a television by the time he or she is 65.
