I've known more than a few homeless who still had laptops and email even though they had no actual address or food security.

Though if you consider what this book is for, it makes more sense than if you just consider one part of it. (One of my favorites so I'm biased. Always found myself strongly agreeing/disagreeing/confused by it's contents so it fits well into my "let me think about this a bit" category.)

Come to think of it, always liked the Anarchists Cookbook too. Different reason though. (More of an "evolution in action" thing there. Swear that thing was written to supply a steady stream of Darwin prize winners among the violent and foolish.)
