16. I read Stranger in a Strange Land a few months ago.

For the second time. I read it the first time when I was in high school in the 1960s. Yes, I would like to see it made into a movie. But only if they don't take very many liberties with it. When Hollywood takes liberties with a great original, they ruin it. They forget what made the original great in the first place, and take out the greatness. I grok the greatness in the original, but Hollywood rarely seems to.
