heh.
I remember in the mid/late 80s how the Scientologists marketed the shit out of Dianetics and how everyone thought it was a pop psychology book and owned it but nobody ever actually sat down to actually read it.

Once I actually did try reading Dianetics and I got like 10-20 pages in and it didn't make sense so I stopped reading.
