Has anyone read 1984? It's my favorite book. (And the only sci-fi book I've ever read voluntarily.)

I'll check it out, I need a book.

I do love Clockwork Orange- may need to work some of that marvelous vocabulary into my speech. Real horrorshow, isn't it?

Beka- LEAVE

jmac- candy...chocolate covered pretzels. And Campbell's Chicken Noodle soup.

The only sci-fi I've read outside of Douglas Adams is Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles." EXCELLENT book

What's that about, Tiff? And I did read Memoirs of a Geisha then- great detail, poorly constructed plot.

Fahrenheit 451 is a book about the gov't burning books! 451 degrees F is the temp at which paper burns or soemthing. The book has been banned from many Libraries and ispired:

Fahrenheit 911 AND Fahrenhype 911.

It is similar to the story in Footloose...

EDIT: STUPID COMPUTER!

I love sci-fi movies, though. I watched all of the original Star Wars like ten times when I was 11.

ETA: Actually, Bradbury was pissed when Michael Moore used the title Fahrenheit 9/11
