Well, as far as the movie idea goes, I saw that they have cast Angelina Jolie as Dagny. Not so sure if I agree with that either. Pam, I have to agree with you that there is no way they are going to get this into a movie. It should prove interesting. The movie is supposed to be started in 2008. Time will tell.

When I first got into the book I was tempted to look at it as socialism or marxism but as I read I decided that it really wasn't either. The philosophies in the book are different enough from anything that we have out there that I think it earns the title of unique. All in all, it was a work of fiction, influenced by reality, but fiction none the less. I liked the fact that it made me think and reconcider(is that spelled right?) some notions that I have carried for a lifetime.
