To Clarify --
any mention of CM, or of BO --
is disgusting .
(some creatures affront Existence Itself)

Let me clarify - that tingle up the leg that Chris Matthews gets when he thinks of Obama at bedtime

Learn, to read while sleeping .

That's disgusting .

Wrong -- you require the book .

If you do not want to read it, get it on audiobook and listen to it while you drive.

While the movie is good, you are missing a ton by not reading the book.

The smokes with the $ is a good example. It is her first clue and represents much more than a pack a smokes, but that was all lost in the first movie. Read the book, or listen to it on audiobook.

Thats funny.

Not unlike that tingle up the leg that Chris Matthews gets when he thinks of Obama?

The $ sign on a butt is confirmation of contact with the destroyer. AKA John Galt.

As good as some movie adaptations are they are never as good as the book. And you can't go to bed cuz you HAVE TO READ!

I am going to bed. So happy I found this site. I will see you all later. Ciao for now.

READ ATLAS SHRUGGED! You have 11 days and some hours left til part II opens...if you do NOTHING else between now and then you might get it finished. Go! GO GO GO GO GO!!!

I never did read the books; I was too busy reading the Dune series. lol.

It had a gold dollar sign on it. They turned up in several different places in the book. She gave a butt to the old news stand operator in the Taggart building because he collected cigarettes and also sold them at his stand. I don't think they ever mentioned his name though...

Ha ha ha!

It was made in the Gulch. In the book, Dagny gives it to a man (whose name i don't remember) who is an expert on Cigarettes and he determines that it is not made from any of the remaining Cigarette manufacturers.

It means the same thing that shoots the joy up your spine when you see a "Who is John Galt" bumper sticker, or a grocery worker wearing Rearden metal on their wrists. It means you're with friends.
