You survived. I never survived it.* I wanted to like it.* I
   really wanted to like it.* But.. it's just too.. .doom + gloom.*
   I... also didn't care much for Dune.* Never survived that
   either... but I have friends who were huge fans of both and I
   just had to nod my head and smile agreeingly and listen
   politely.* I never interrupt the True Fan... unless I'm one too
   :P
