I have introduced the book to many people. I think only about 10% every finish it. I'm a little surprised by that. A recent introduction, though, is going very well. I was working with an engineering college intern for a while. Very bright, inquisitive kid. Really like this young man. He started asking me life questions after a while. "What would you have done differently?", etc. This, I thought, was a great sign. Having a son with autism...I love the opportunity to help young men who aren't as handicapped. I waited a long time to become a father and, after all I'd been through (with women, work, watching friends crash with vices) I was really ready to raise a young man. Anyway, this young friend is devouring the book this summer. He just saw the first mentions of Project X. I said, "Man, it's about to get really dark..." The thing he loves about the book most is how much of it is visible in current news. Very prophetic.
