    The New York TImes announced today that the master of pranksterism has passed away.

    @MeAgain and @ZenKarma

    ZenKarma and Meagain, do you all know of any really good books about Abbie Hoffman, Paul Krassner, and others associated with them? I've read very little, but I'm very interested in their stories.

    I have. I just like suggestions from people who I've already read viewpoints or opinions on other things.

    I think I've found some stuff though.
