    Wonder when everyone met Ayn Rand. I met her in the early 70's. we met through a talk radio show in Detroit hosted by Mark Scott. When I first heard him my mind exploded. I could not believe someone was speaking what I had thought for years. Mark introduced me to Objectivism, and rational thinking. Through him I met Ayn Rand and her books.

    Over the years I have passed copies of various books she has written. Both of my daughters had a copy of Anthem before they were 13. They are now very independent thinkers and I am proud that they stand strong on their convictions.

    In the next few days I will be passing off another copy of Atlas Shrugged. Planting a seed for rational thought and creating a fighter against the irrational and moochers.

    Not sure of the context of your comment.
    Groused the link and found the article to be on point. After seeing AS1&2 I too thing there is a disconnect between the movie the book and the movie goers. The movie should have been a bit stronger in their articulating Ayn Rands guiding principles. This is a major flaw in the movie.

    These critics obviously have a big problem with not being portrayed as heroes.

      They are guilty of being the villians when they thought it was the other way around. I suppose it's quite shocking to learn after many years of thinking one thing to learn that everything you thought you knew turned out to be wrong. I'd say that has the most to do with the critical attack on ASP2.
