I just finished Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged", and I really need to know...
Towards the end, were Hank Rearden and Francisco D'Anconia going gay for each other?

No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful. -

Hmm, interesting question. I don't have a copy of it nearby but I don't remember getting any homosexual overtones when I was reading it last time.
Then again, I skipped over a lot of bits because they were somewhat dull. The radio speech by John Galt was one such example."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment

Yeah, and you know what was REALLY funny about Galt's speech?
Later on in the book somebody asks Galt to lead the world or something. Essentially they're asking him for advice.
And Galt responds something like "You had my advice. It was on the radio. It lasted two hours."
...
I wanted to throw the book at Galt then and there and say "Yes, and like 100% of the world's population, he probably turned the radio off, or went to wash his hair, or something during those two hours."
Another response could have been "tl;dr"."lol internet" ~ AAHZComment
