I'm not sure what to think either. I mean, I like Ray Bradbury too but not that much.

On the other hand it is kinda nice to know that younger people still read his books. He's in his 90's I think.



On the other hand if this is what passes for culture these days it would explain a lot of TV programming.

Well I _do_ like Ray Bradbury a lot, and yes, he's in his 90s now -- but what is the event depicted with Ray, and Mrs. Bush the librarian and...some other guy...what was going on?
