    If it helps, just remember that its commentary on how “women are not real people” was SO egregious, even if more in line with some of the thinking of the day, that it SURELY must have been satire.

    Or at least that is the only way that I can stomach reading it - so while I also happen to believe it, I also just “flat” (hehe) choose to believe it as well:-). Someone who sees so clearly into the heart of logic… well, I want to believe the best there rather than the abysmal worst that it appears as.

    Thanks for the suggestions - I never looked around for another sequel, that is awesome!:-)

    I really do enjoy people who “think outside of the box”, as that is the main way to move forward - not to discount the enormous investments of efforts by tinkerers too, but we need a bit of both. Jules Verne, HG Wells, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Robert Heinlein, this Flatland book, CS Lewis - these giants could see far b/c they saw clearly into the hearts of people.
