Wise words

To be fair to Andrew, though he called himself a libertarian he was a quirky sort of left-wing libertarian, not anything like an Objectivist...and from reading what he wrote here I doubt very much whether he thought very highly of Ayn Rand. Here's a link to another anti-Randian libertarian--scientist, futurist, and Hugo-winning science fiction author David Brin, who calls himself a proponent of the "saner libertarianism of Adam Smith and Robert Heinlein."

I m the stranger in a strange land around here......

“There are two novels that can change a bookish fourteen-year old’s life: The Lord of the Rings and Atlas Shrugged. One is a childish fantasy that often engenders a lifelong obsession with its unbelievable heroes, leading to an emotionally stunted, socially crippled adulthood, unable to deal with the real world. The other, of course, involves orcs."

--John Rogers
