Re: Would the FPE work in real life?
Thomas Jefferson said it best. Democracy only works with an educated populace. That is why I am a teacher. As each generation passes the torch to the next, we hope that our children learned from our mistakes. We must strive to be more educated than our parents were. When you eliminate ignorance, the...

Re: Reaction to Ender's Game
I agree, the Speaker series will blow your mind. Also look into the Shadow series because you'll get so much more detail through Shadow, the series that follows Bean's perspective.

I first read EG in 1997 as a required summer novel for 9th grade and I remember reading it three times that Summer instead of reading the other two bo...

Re: Mazer
I'm an 8th grade English teacher and I'm envious of my students that they do not have to wait decades for a movie version. I think Wil Wheaton would make a great Dap. I've been posting on Ender's Ansible for a while now, but I'll add this here (I'm sure it's been discussed, I haven't explored thorou...
