Been a long time since I posted here. Some of the later threads brought up memories.
I remember reading a lot of H.G. Wells' work in High School, and hearing that upon hearing "War of the Worlds" after it had already started on the radio, many people thought that Earth REALLY was being invaded and that they were listening to a news broadcast.
While I never read the entire thing in a class, once a requirement was to read an excerpt from Ray Bradbury's "The Martian Chronicles". It was one chapter, titled something like: "Usher: April 2005". I think Bradbury may have meant it to cross a bit with his Farenheit 451, as it had to do with books being "against the law". Very creepy it was, but a good short story on its own.
