You know, I swear I wrote a bunch of stuff after that quote... oh well. Anyway, to recap... yes, I was referring to “Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep”, it's a great read. As far as favorite authors, my favorite is Kurt Vonnegut (he's so damned irreverent). My favorite book of all time is Don Quixote by Miguel Cervantes de Saavedra, which actually reads like a modern book which is surprising considering it was first published 400 years ago.
I used to read all the time, but I got out of the habit for some reason. I've started reading heavily again within the last couple of months, going thru my bookshelves for any books I haven't read yet.
