Works like this can only make one wonder who is making the selections, such as "Harry Potter" for study in our public classrooms. Do they realize what they choose molds our culture for better or worse? Is it "worshipers" of government dependence and self or merely "useful idiots" inadvertantly serving the same.
This work can help a lot of people, especially young people, in the formative years, who need to learn a healthy dose of truth on how they, and society, are affected by the friends they choose or who choose them and the importance and life-long consequences of those choices.

I can't thank you enough for recording this. Cicero in English is better listened to than read. Good man good man.
