I'm sort of confused about the Jets and the Bombers that always fly over Montag's house. Why are they there?
I Choose to do question: B. How will books get us out of "the cave?" What is the cave and how will books get us out of it?
Well i believe that the cave is where this whole world, generally speaking from the book, is. Trapped in a closed cave where the government rules their everyday lives. I'm thinking that if we read about the past we could define the future. Confucius once said, "Study the past if you wish to define the future". Something like that. Also the people in this book don't know anything so if they knew things they could see the world like never before. They only know what the government tells them and shows them. So i think that this means that books are a way out of certain things and if they read books they would know more about the world and the people living on it.

Daniel, I'm really impressed with this post. I know this is not the one you wanted me to comment on, but I wanted to say that I found it insightful. The Confucius quote is great. Are you saying that history is found in books and that a society without books has no history? Brilliant !
