  Sorry for such a long delay in getting back to this.   Been a bit busy with real life. Any way, this post takes us to when Dagny Taggart is riding on the Taggart Comet, the “premier” train in the country.   She falls asleep while the train is moving and wakes up when it’s stopped.

  Wall St. Cheat Sheet — Authority: 646
  The United States has had a perverted perspective on Ayn Rand’s epic characters. They have been explained as capitalist heroes whose selfish pursuits reached the level of nobility. However, looking specifically at the famous protagonist in The Fountainhead, Howard Roark, I see a person who transcends capitalism. ...

  Apparently Angelina Jolie is set to star as Dagny Taggart. I think I can live with that. :) This project has been talked about for a long time. I hope it happens and I hope they do it right as this will be a very difficult adaptation to film. Atlas Shrugged The Fountainhead

  JVBlogger — Authority: 121
  Watching Richard Attenborough’s “Life of Birds” on PBS last night, I saw a striking example of nature’s socialist counterpart – the Cuckoo. There are so many parallels, and the analogy clearly describes the win/lose basis of socialism. Nest Intrusion Female European Cuckoos lay their eggs only in the nests ...

  tvanderwell on SmartHippo.com — Authority: 138
  As the “narrator” is “introducing” Dagny Taggart, he says something that I believe is very important about her….. “She did the work long before she got the title.” He was talking about how she made her way through the various jobs she had at Taggart Transcontinental.   But think about it, how many ...
