What was it like for you? I am hearing stories of food lines, suicides and all manner of horrible stuff. No personal info, I just want to know what other people are actually seeing and hearing. This is like the Twilight Zone. I need input.

Personally I had a rough year. I am having problems with vertigo, so I seldom get out and about. When I have I have experienced snitches and hatefulness. People act afraid and even panicky. I can only imagine what it must be like in cities like Atlanta or LA. The stuff I am seeing coming from UK and Oz is completely insane. Is it really that bad?

Yeah I listened to a lot of audiobooks for a while. I picked books that I thought would be dull but most turned out to be great. Brushed up on 20th century history.

It's really tough to find non fiction books that aren't questionable. Do you have a favorite of what you read?

My list from this year was kinda like this: Robert Heinlein - Starship Troopers, Stranger in a Strange Land, Citizens of the Galaxy (All great books) The Prince Mein Kampf (read it twice, excellent book) The Turner Diaries (also twice also excellent The Idiot - Dostoevsky ( one of the best books I have ever read) 1984 - Orwell Fahrenheit 451 - Bradbury Also a lot of short horror MR James, HP Lovecraft, Algernon Blackwood, Ambrose Bierce & others like them.

The concept of moral philosophy Heinlein spoke of is profound, and I think that is the world we are coming to, if we survive. Age of Reason - Thomas Paine Autobiography of Ben Franklin and about half of Gulag Archipelago before I had to put it down before I lost my sanity.

i realize you said non fiction, but a lot of this Sci fi I read because it is no longer fiction.
