Given that, from what I've heard, Bush doesn't tend to read, period, I think it somewhat unlikely that he's read those particular books. A few years ago, I visited my parents-in-law, who attend a Pentecostal-type church. Before the service, someone came up to my mother-in-law and was going on about the first book, and how everyone should read it. The way she talked about it creeped me out a bit. I have since received the first two books as gifts (from someone else) and have not read either yet. They're pretty far down on my list. Maybe in 2007 or 2008, I might get to the first one.... _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
