he has unlocked the mysterious "dead zone" of his brain

IIRC, the phrase "dead zone" as used in the novel described what Johnny couldn't perceive with his new ability, such as street addresses and sometimes names: the absence of the information stood out from what he did "see" when he used the touch. Ellsworth 22:08, 14 Apr 2005 (UTC)

Didn't the "dead zone" also refer to the visions of the future not being written in stone and changeable as in the case when he foresaw the ice accident?--66.240.89.45 19:40, 18 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adaptions vs. Disambiguation

The adaptions section is useful, as it includes some detail, but the obvious question is: should this not go into a disambiguation page? Insomniacity 14:04, 15 July 2005 (UTC)

I see the adaptations as belonging here since it has very much to do with the book. --69.154.162.94 00:21, 5 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ending?

due to its ending, is considered to be one of the worst books ever.

This seemed out of place and was added recently as the sole edit to a non-logged in user. I have removed it. --ViperDaimao64.154.26.251 17:44, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

Considered one of the worst books ever? According to WHOM?????? I thought the ending was right. Chani 65.74.59.37 11:18, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
