It is certainly a very... lengthy test, to say the least. And all because they want to "sort out trolls from genuine contributors". Especially about the part where you have to choose between "yes" or "no" in the question about "have you read this book called xxx?" - I must admit that I have yet to get my hands on any of Ayn Rand's books, even if I consider myself of being very sympathetic with objectivist philosophy as a whole.

Hi Martin,

Since you've not read any Rand books, I'd highly recommend Atlas Shrugged as a truly life changing book...

I'm on my 4th read and still can't put it down... and have avidly followed it's principles of doing business for 30 years with excellent results and personal satisfaction.

If you ever wanted an inspiration for becoming a decent productive successful American Capitalist, Shrugged is a MUST read!

Over 50 years ago, Rand accurately predicted EXACTLY what is happening today...

...as well as EXACTLY what to do about it.

Take Care,

Greg

Hi Greg,

I will try to get myself a copy, although I must say that Ayn Rand is pretty much a nobody in my country - the reason why I stumbled upon her philosophy was by browsing wikipedia... which was alright I guess, I still have learnt a lot. But as I said, I will still try to get myself a copy of Atlas.

You WON'T be disappointed, Martin...

It's FLAT OUT the BEST book I've ever read in my life.

Atlas Shrugged sold 185,000 copies in 2007...

...200,000 copies in 2008...

...and so far this year it's selling at TRIPLE the 2008 rate.

This is ASTOUNDING sales for a 50+ year old work of fiction.


Take Care,

Greg
