Fahrenheit 451 Reflection so far

As we read through some of the first pages in Fahrenheit 451, I realized some things I hadn't seen the first time. One part ties in with the short story, "The Pedestrian". As Clarissa walks with Montag she says her uncle was arrested for simply being a pedestrian. This is so similar to what happened in the short story. I also noticed that Bradbury wrote about things that didn't exist at the time, such as headphones and flat screen TVs. It appears that Clarrise and Montag are almost the opposite of each other. Clarisse lives in a house full of light, laughter, and love while Montag lives in a gloomy, dark house. She brings happiness to Montag's life.
