I'm very happy to have landed in the Gulch...although I have been familiar with the premise of Atlas Shrugged and have lived by the principles of the book my entire life, I have only just very recently actually read the book. It has been interesting to see my thoughts on paper having flowed from someone else's pen. It has been encouraging and motivating to recognize the validity of clear logic and pride in today's world of turmoil and victim mentality.
