No, never heard of it. What's it about, and is it recommended reading?

Me, sweat? I'm that cool, it's condensation.
Yes, it's worth reading.
It's about two mice and two little people. They all live in a maze and hunt for cheese (which is a metaphor for happiness).
They all find a big supply of cheese at Cheese Station C. The amough of cheese gradually decreases but the little people doesn't notice. When the cheese one day is gone the mice move on. But the little people stay and try to figure out where the cheese has gone.
One of the little people, Hem, doesn't wan't to face the change or adapt and is angry that someone has moved his cheese and is waiting day after day for the cheese to come back. The other, Haw, realizes that the cheese is gone and is not comming back so he decides to go back into the maze in the hunt for cheese.
Cheese could be family, love, comfort of home a job with an airline etc.
Anyway I'm going back to the maze!

Tor,
I haven't read it but what you describe sounds good. I good do with something different to read - anything better than IR plates, checklists and procedures!

'Blessed are the cheese makers? What's he going on about'
'He's not referring to just cheese makers, but purveyors of all dairy products'
Well,something like that anyway. You've got to know your Python.

Whilst a little levity is always welcome perhaps this thread is best suited to Aircrew Notices - or something!
