A timeless piece of literature authored by an exceptional person. I enjoyed Fountainhead equally as well, both offering a philosophical perspective of objectivism. Richard, that was a very constructive and timely post. Ken

more Atlas Shrugged, P. 98: "...It’s the only measure of human value. All the codes of ethics they’ll try to ram down your throat are just so much paper money put out by swindlers to fleece people of their virtues. The code of competence is the only system of morality that’s on a gold standard. When you grow up you’ll know what I mean." Happened to be reading it now although I've figured out much of it the hard way... I really see Digital Equipment (ironicly one of the In Search of Excellence companies) as a great analogy to Reardon Metal. Do you have a link to an online version? BTW, I'm also starting to see many references online about John Galt - seriously, I got an email from him today about gov't grants (more unearned money) <g>
