<< I expected it was going to be revealed as the
 whole meaning of the book - *Holden is meant to be a teacher*! It seemed
 all to make sense then - he cannot be a student because he is an innate
 teacher; that is what he is meant to do. It's strange, it's barely occured
 to me since then. But I guess, like you say, that a teacher (a *good*
 teacher) is a kind of formalised catcher in the rye. >>


I never thought of that...it makes a lot of sense.  That's why I love this
list, new insights.  Anyway, my sister and I were tackling the idea of what a
'catcher in the rye' would actually be...she decided that a school crossing
guard would be the best fit job.  A teacher...that makes so much sense.
Thanks.
