Books:

most of my reading has been to do with College, I haven't really had the time to read much else.
But things I've enjoyed in the past include...
MR Nice, Howard Marks autobiography, really enjoyed it.
The Tao of Pooh by Benjamin Hoff, lovely little book that made me smile.
Emergence by Steven Johnson, nice easy going but thought provoking popular science book; if you read it and like it then have a look at Kevin Kelly's book Out of Control, also there's a free online version of it on his website: http://www.kk.org/outofcontrol/contents.php
I also really liked Nelson Mandela's autobiography The Long Road to Freedom, its a big book and I'm a bit of a slow reader so it took me ages to finish but its a great book and well worth sticking at it.and some recent include books:
The possibility of an ISLAND, by Michel Houellebecq - real good but real dark in an existential crisis kind of a way.
The long emergency, by James H Kunstler - a good peak oil book.
reading Wison, A consideration of the sources, by David Wilson at the moment but its slow going.

Heroes:

your my hero... no, honestly you are... no you are, you know that thing you did... you know that thing, that thing! that was f**king great that was, I love you.
