Who is Gavin?

Sounds pretty much like the first sentence of Ayn Rand's Atlas shrugged. I am spending the last half hour reading negative reviews of Fountainhead and immensely enjoying myself. For all you Fountainhead enthusiasts please have a look at these reviews.
Coming back to the question - Can Gavin or GB clarify?

I have no clue :) I was in 7th grade when I first read Ayn Rand and my first impression was "Oooohh wowww". Thankfully, I grew to be a bit intelligent later in life and saw the books for what they actually are. I couldn't finish 'Atlas Shrugged', it was such a painfully boring book.

P.S- I will start blogging soon...I also want to tell you that two books of mine for children [under 7] will be published soon :) More on that later!!

Wow, that's great! Congrats on getting published. :)

And it does thrill me to know that a discerning person, in matters of literature and philosophy, finds Rand 'not all that great', because I had put up that negative opinion of Fountaihead with certain amount of apprehension. Most people, if not all, who have read her books were raving about her and I used to think that there was probably something wrong with me.

Thanks for responding Brownie, nice to know that you are alive. :P

Hey, I just noticed that somebody has been squatting on my blog address with the name Gavin...I thought you were asking me about Atlas Shrugged [I remember vaguely there's a line like that in the book]. I have no idea who Gavin is!!
