Wow, you sure cut out a lot of great culture. If you want to get back into
it, may I recommend Saramago's novel, "The Cave," which, as the title
suggests, is based on Plato.

Philosophy is a dead end. I discovered that plowing my way through them all
up to Bertrand Russell, at which point it turned into linguistics. What a
total waste of time, although I suspect all that reading does sharpen the
mind somewhat.
