buying another banned book. I talked to the owner about how stupid it is to ban books, she agreed. She said she even carried Mein Kampf, and books of numerous religions. She said the local school board in our small central Pa town was trying to ban a book. My hearing isn't the best, it had the word Hate in the title and was about the inner city.

If anyone has a clue what the book may be titled let me know. The book store owner said I hold the record for buying the most banned books. She was a bit disgusted at one of my books, Stranger in a Strange Land. I had to admit to her that I could understand why all religions would like to ban that book.

She just ordered me The Books of Enoch.
