I'm a counter-example to the ML discussion, in that I read the Narnia books multiple times for years before I ever actually noticed the allegory. I think I started reading them around age 7ish, and I was probably ten or eleven, maybe even older, before I registered it.
Also: in my experience OICCU was populated almost entirely by jerks, most of whom wanted to convert me because everyone knows that Catholics aren't actually Christian... they refused to let our assistant chaplain join on that basis, I believe.
Miscellaneous. Eclectic. Random. Perhaps markedly literate, or at least suffering from the compulsion to read any text that presents itself, including cereal boxes.
