elu93 Nov 07, 2006	Catch 22 is the name of a book by Joseph Heller. I liked the teaser though! An interesting fact is that the book's original name was supposed to be Catch 18 (changed because of book Mila 1, then Catch 11 (changed for Ocean's Eleven), then Catch 14 (changed because it wasn't a "funny" number), then FINALLY Catch 22!
elu93 Nov 07, 2006	sorry, the book the caused Catch 22 to change it's name from catch 18 was Mila 18. Sorry if i just made more confusing too!
