A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
-Robert A. Heinlein-

Now that is a "special" thought....

I've read everyone one of his books. I purchased a complete volume set of his books several years ago. They hold a valued place on my bookshelf....

Just curious, which one is your favorite?
