Today concludes my month-long experiment at keeping both Second Life and myself on a draconian chapter-per-day (of Atlas Shrugged) reading and discussion schedule.
It was all very fun. Thank you to everyone who dropped by over the last month. Transcript of the day here.
SNL on SL; tonight’s discussion was haphazard, but we did get to establish what Rearden might have meant with his line on Dagny and he being a bunch of blackguards, and what sorts of dangers might arise. ToryLynn Writer mentioned that it could be an invitation to break the law.
