Good change from the old categories.

I took the Sad She makes some good points but after having read philosophy I don't really feel that she holds up intellectually and I also don't agree with all of her ideas.

I enjoy her books, which are ultimately anthems for individualism. That said, i can't say I follow objectivism.

Good positions on most things; don't agree with her on anarchy or war.

I have a pretty good Objectivist friend who is a better student of philosophy than I am, and who seems nice.  I haven't really discussed it with him, or read any Rand (he's obviously a fan) so I'll withhold judgment.

Was it Atlas Shrugged? I found that one especially painful.

Objectivism is a really interesting philosophy. I don't think I believe in it, was captivated by it for a while. I still think that the future belongs to Objectivism.
