Atlas Shrugged part 2

Who is this man that visited Hammon the night before he disappeared? According to his sister, a stranger came to the house in the evening and he and Hammon stayed in his study talking late into the night. I think it is the John Galt himself come to take him and all the other highly successful and daring businessmen to Atlantis. Men like Ellis Wyatt, Nielson, and Hammon.

Atlas Shrugged

Last summer I read "The Fountainhead" and "We the Living" by Ayn Rand. I have started reading "Atlas Shrugged" this summer but due to classes, work, and general time wasting I'm not as far along as I would have been if I had read at the pace I read last summer. Oh well. In regards to the "Who is John Galt?" question, Ayn Rand may or may not have finally given us a little crumb of information. Was he really a rich man who found the city of Atlantis, the city of heroes? I don't know yet. Please if you've read the book, don't spoil it for me. Don't tell me what happens, I like to find things out for myself because that's the fun of it. The unanswerable question. I love it!
Unfortunately I don't have the time to write a dissertation on my opinions on Objectivism. I might do that later.
