About your post roto, the guy probably added that disclaimer, "You probably won't get it because you're too young" because he has some suspicion you won't like a book (it's one I haven't heard of, personally) that means a lot to him, and that would bruise his ego. Or perhaps the book deals with something involving a different era. For example, from what I have heard from many people, no one of "my generation" could possibly understand Viet Nam... and maybe it's true. Anyway, maybe you should just take it as his way of telling you that he values your opinion...

I would answer your topic question, but that was really just a way to validate your thread, right?

EDIT: EoFF should really create a spam thread where everyone can start threads involving what the hell ever they choose... and blah, blah, blah, and so forth...
