A.
If everything were replaced with I there would be some lonely and crazed people. Nobody would care about other people. There would be no reason to progress, just only to survive. I feel that If everyone became like this that the world would simply come to an end and things would cease to exist

C.
The names given to the characters are not normal. To me they seem to reflect the thought of the names. I think that these names are used to show how they are grouped

D.
I think the word would be something like individual or self. The society in the book would not like a the thought or ideal of this word being used. I think the word would be punishable by law simply because of what it means. Also the people may realize that society doesnt really have to be grouped.

A.

I dont think that a supercomputer could control anything. I beleive that it would be pointless to have a computer that had access to resources and supplies could do anything without a human being exexute the actions. I dont think that supercomputers could rule or control anything and that people would not allow this to happen.

B. I beleive that she dislikes groups or organizations. I think that she feels that a individual could accomplish more because alone you dont worry about others opinions. I beleive the possibilities that she is talking about are succeding at something. I completely agree with Rand on this.

D. Individualism, in my opinion means that a person can "make it" if he or she applies themselves and work hard. I think that this goes hand in hand with freedom. Rand's definition of individualism clashes with my definition. To me her definition means to stand alone. I feel that everyone needs someone elses help every now and then.
