Ideas for publicizing our cause. 1) Ask strangers to take a photo of you wearing your "Who is John Galt" or "Atlas Shrugged" gear. 2) At Barnes & Noble (or similar establishment) go to the cafe and order a drink. When the cashier asks what name to put on your cup, reply "John Galt" or "Dagny Taggart." And your ideas?

    I'm not one to answer my phone when I don't recognize the caller's number. Recently, though, I've begun answering with, "Who is John Galt?" No bites yet...

    I've have also been slipping Who Is John Galt? into conversations. No one even seems to hear. The Walking Dead: Now Non-Fiction, but instead of eating your body they eat your life.

    Where I live it is common to say "ah, por eso" whenever someone gives a weak, excuse for delays, broken infrastructure, govt laziness. It means "ah, that is why. " it 's said with irony or sort of sadly depending. The upshot is - but what can you do? That 's how I say "who is john Galt? " which I have begun slipping into conversations with people. Most don 't even seem to notice. That 's how asleep people are. For those who do ask it 's always a treat to refer them to the novels and movies. And especially this time around because it 's the movie 's title.
