Hope for the future?

My local supermarket has monitors near the check out lanes for running ads. I ran a Who is John Galt ad a while back and wanted to do it again. A teenager was just in and he is helping the owner contact local businesses. I told him I wanted to run my ad again for August. I handed him a Shrug card and told him it said Who is John Galt. He said "Atlas Shrugged is a movie...sweet. I loved that book". I was stunned. He said he'll take care of it and he couldn't wait to go see the movie. Is there hope???

    Thanks. It was kind of strange talking to someone that young about Atlas Shrugged. Looking forward to talking to him again.

    I need to talk to him more. It really was surprising when he said that. I need to mention the first two parts are already available. I''ll suggest that.

    I have to ask about his friends when he comes back. I need to pay him and sign something for the ad to run. I guessed he is a senior in high school. Impressive that he took it on himself to read AS.

    What a hopeful sign to find that kid Rich. What about his friends?

    Hope? Where there is life there is hope, but it's fading very fast.
