Paying it forward

29th March 2004

Here is an article (registration required) about a veteran and the numerous charities and other activities in which he participates. The kicker:

He also loves reading, and that’s reflected in his choices for company at his fantasy dinner party — Samuel Clemens, Robert Heinlein, Tom Clancy and Herman Wouk.

The book he would most recommend to others is The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Mr. Heinlein, he said, because “it’s a great, fun story with some great ideas.”
