    Stranger in a Strange Land

    It is not unusual for a conscious, individualized person to feel like a stranger in a strange land. There is much in the Babylon Matrix that is strange and disaffecting.

    A Ball of Light in your Hands

    Someone once said, “Don’t read a book unless it is like a ball of light glowing in your hands.” I think that’s a reasonable standard.
