My Life in Technicolor

aseI'm still wearing the shine off my new phone, but have found two drawbacks so far:
1.) Not designed for ebook reading; no native support or obvious kludge
2.) No intuitive way to move "notepad" notes to computer
Since I'm about three minutes from falling asleep at the keyboard, the intended post will be rescued from the notepad later, except for the critical excerpt: books, school and (obliquely) more books. Indirectly, it's all mind-games.
1.) Which Ian (M.) Banks novel should I read first?
2.) Costudying*: codependence, or best study technique ever?
*Costudy: when two or more people meet to study different topics at the same study table. Passive study assistance. In theory, having someone else around keeps you on track.
3.) To you, what is a (political) radical?
It's the third that's got my brain ticking over; this week's bus reading is a collection of Audre Lorde's essays. It's challenging but engaging reading.

And our governor-elect is clearly a hypocrite--he insisted he wouldn't take money to provide 5000+ jobs to people in this state because he didn't want high-speed rail, so the Obama administration yanked the promised funds yesterday--but I wouldn't call him a radical, either.
I s'pose Act Up, in its original form, would have qualified, though I don't think it does any more.
