> kind-hearted secretary told me one day about a group she belonged to that
> read great books, and she thought I would be interested. So she got the
> group to invite me on the night it was to meet at her house. They were
> reading the Apology, Phaedo, and Crito. I was really excited and reread
> the works carefully. With some eagerness and trepidation I went to the
> meeting, but found very soon that the purpose of the meeting was to prove
> or disprove whether Plato was a proto-mormon! As politely as possible, I
> thanked my guests, but was not invited (thankfully) to any more meetings.
