Zoo by Robert Patterson, ...

[frahse]

I was working Saturday, but had to wait for someone else to finish before I could do what I needed to, so I went to a Publix Grocery to get some food, and snacks. I decided to look at their "book rack." I looked about and settled on "Zoo" supposedly a best seller.

To explain my choice, Zoo was about "critters." I love critter books. Especially do I like Alien critter books and these critters in Zoo though of Earthly origin were certainly acting "alien."

Patterson and his writing buddy went on about 500 pages full of crazy critters and how they were wrecking the world and eating people.

The thread of logic held together for a while, but then became more farfetched and more far fetched and I got to that point where I only continued the 500 page book because I wanted to see how it ended.

At the end Patterson had the people acting about as crazy as the critters except it seemed the critters were actually evolving and "learning" while the people seemed devolving.

Then Patterson true intent became clear.
He was against the ordinary rules and processes. Against animal cruelty. Against the military. Against privilege including government privilege. And really against anybody including other scholars that didn't see the light as he saw it. And finally totally against RF frequencies (from cell phones and the like) and petroleum products.

In my own mind he was also against common sense and gave animals much more power than they could ever have. In this way his methods were like the zombie book writers that have zombies that can't be stopped. "They just keep coming and coming and coming..." "What can we do?"
