Book Note: back when I was in college (my extra job was cleaning up the dinosaur shit) a book called "Atlas Shrugged," a 1,000 page rant by Ayn Rand, was what all the kids were reading and what all the professors ranted and raved against. It seems that this year's Atlas is the Horowitz book, "The Professors: The 101 Most Dangerous Academics in America," and from what I hear from a lot of young people, many most of whom just like to do things that the authorities will get pissed at, are reading the book and threatening to take tape recorders into class. One kid told us that he pretended to be recording and the prof went nuts. You can't keep kids off the web so they will get the truth eventually. Wonder if the Taliban punk at Yale knows how to work a tape recorder.....
