I'd like a Walter Isaacson biography.

But I don't think that will happen.

No doubt, and I hope you enjoy it. But it is something that I have no interest in reading or buying.

Do you feel the same about all biography books? What about Mein Kampf? That's a great book.

Not at all...it's a good way to get hard currency. When I was in East Germany in the 1980s, they had no problem charging me for *anything.*

I think it was "selling the capitalist the rope that will hang him." Or something like that.

Perhaps, but it didn't work out quite the way they expected. Quite a bit of the East Berlin and GDR I remember simply isn't there anymore.
