Brave New World (Ch.10)

O my what a chapter! The director got his just deserts after the threats he prompted towards Bernard! (I.E. Sending him to Iceland...is that really that bad? I've heard Iceland has little "Ice" and is quite more hospitable than the apparent "Greenland"...:) I think it to be ironic that the director condemns Bernard for his apparent "heretical" behavior, Bernard's resistance to being merely a mindless ambling child-like husk, yet ultimately it is the director's own proclivities and past turpitudes that threatens the tenets of stability, of the world state. When John and Linda confront the director head on it is a sight to behold as the director flees in terror from his own past, the ironic drama here is executed flawlessly! I suspect some future consequences for not only the director's "heretical" past but so to Bernard's present actions, like the director notes, Bernard is becoming rebellious, gradually becoming more and more inquisitive to the "utopia"of the world, slowly but surely questioning whether he is one of the many or an individual unable to exist in a uniform society.
