Well I, like Holden, am a very eclectic group all on my own (: Seriously folks I see Holden Schizophrenic as an unproductive seam to mine in comparision to Holden Religious Maniac, Holden Sexual Abuse Victim or even Holden Gay. It just doesn't interest me or tell me much about the book, and its one of the rare viewpoints that we know Salinger didn't intend. Welcome to the group, Camille verona_beach@hotpop.com
