"In the end the Party would announce that two and two make five, and you would have to believe it. It was inevitable that they should make that claim sooner or later: the logic of their position demanded it. Not merely the validity of experience, but the very existence of external reality, was tacitly denied by their philosophy."
George Orwell, Nineteen Eighty-Four.

Kickoff the read on Feb 1?
Well, I'm already reading it......... [grin] I was planning on a review either Monday 3rd or Thursday 6th Jan if that's OK?
Third should be fine! I'll get my copy out today.
Cool.
Why don't people notice that we're there again???
That's a VERY good question. Are people's memories THAT short? Don't people realise what's happening? Don't they care? Its not like we haven't seen this horror movie before.
Unfortunately, yes. Some people don't even want to think and believe anything, some idiot tells them.
