Perfect, right?

"'What do I care about his reputation?'
'They say he doesn't like Obstacle Golf.'
'They say, they say,' mocked Lenina." p. 45

In this perfect world, people aren't really happy. The theory behind this world is that people will be content in what they are and won't know any different. Basically, the old saying, ignorance is bliss. Bernard and his friend Helmholtz Watson are at the highest level of the class system; they are Alpha Pluses. Although they are at the highest level, they are unhappy. This parallels society today because there are people who have all the fortune and fame in the world and are still unhappy. Human are humans no matter what happens to them; they all still need love and affection.

  2. Also, your time zone is incorrect. It needs to be set on Eastern Time Zone. You can correct that in your Settings.
