Can Anyone Help me?
Here is my situation folks....

I'm a junior high student, and we started our Illinois History project. And the topic I have chosen, is the ol' so famous and talented writer: Ray Bradbury.

I have info on him, from his website, and other places. But I was just wondering if any of you generous people, had any sort of other info on him. If you do, it very much be appreciated by me. So if you have any, here is my email: chrismeasel69@hotmail.com

Thanks!
Chris

Chris, When is it due, and how fast can you read? What collections of short stories/novels by Mr Bradbury have you digested so far... That is my best suggestion is to stay up late: if you have to with a flashlight, and read till you either can't fall asleep or have to shut the book. My second suggestion is to get a copy of "The Illustrated Man" it is a classic to whet your appetite. Good Luck on your report!

Mr. Dark
No one means to sound snotty, but if you don't have the story, how can getting someone to answer these questions for you have any meaning -- educationally -- whatsoever?

You need to get the story somehow, read through it, and work up your tentative answers. At that point, if you need supplemental thoughts or critiques of what YOU think it means, post your tentative ideas and many here will be happy to help.
