In the other thread I wasn't saying the theses of the book were necessarily wrong, just that it is endeavor with a lot of good looking failure. Historical patterns have a habit of making complete sense and working fine right up until someone tries to use them to forecast future history. Hari Seldon is still a visionary. But that in know way makes them bad reads assuming the history is correct (and sometimes the forecasts work at least one more time too).
I can dig it. I'm trying to be honest with myself - right now, I'm burying myself in positive thinking, and this book makes me feel good. Eyes on the prize, baby.

Hope you enjoy it....and if you want to tear it a new one here, feel free, don't worry about me (not that you would).
