    Instead of "Who is John Galt," we should ask "Where is John Galt." We need him now more than ever. It's been a couple of years since I read AS, and I need to do it again soon. My sister and I both have the CDs, which she is listening to now. I prefer the printed page and have the novel in book form and on Kindle.

    I have read AS 6 times. I can't do audio because my mind takes off and I don't hear what they read. with the book, the sentence, paragraph, page is still there. I am ready to read it again but I have The Romantic Manifesto in front of me now. I wish I had read it before but I didn't understand how important this work was. I am not very smart because Rand was very insistent that it was.

    I second the recommendation. I have heard it several times on solo driving trips coast to coast, and it helps the miles fly past. Every time I am inspired by it.

    Consider the MP3 CD version. It's word for word, jot and tittle the same as the big hard bound I got a couple of years ago. This way you can "read" it on your commute to work, or as you walk.

    I went through the chapter titles of AS recently and discovered that we are pretty close to John Galt's speech. I hoped that I would hear that speech on the day that Obama decided to do his podcast about a month ago.

    Finished my second read a couple months ago. Only book I have read twice and likely the only one I will read again.
