when the world will want them again

It's snowing outside. This is the first snow, and in fact the first precipitation of any kind, we've had here in Albuquerque for the whole winter. And yesterday TCM showed Truffaud's Fahrenheit 451 and, while it's not my favorite SF movie, I still watched the final scene, when people walking thru the snow are memorizing stories for when the world will want them again.
