I Read 1984

I haven't started reading the book yet but I think I should.

I just heard the word doublethink from George Orwell's novel and probably read it soon.

Have you read the book?

Yes, I've read it. You would be forgiven for mistakenly believing that it's not so much a warning as a prediction ;)

@SimplyTracie: It's anamazing book. It's truly full of foresight.

Unfortunately a lot of governments seem to have been using it as a 'How To Govern' booklet...
