Is it the age difference as mentioned by JW. Or the only four players you would pay money to see.

Sorry for the delay.

Why was the novel 'Fahrenheit 451' by Ray Bradbury so named?

Only Fahrenheit I know is Fahrenheit 9/11 but the number seems familiar, I'll bite, the height of the World Trade Centre was 451m? Probably wrong, but...

Something to do with the flashpoint at which paper spontaneously catches fire?

Correct. Famous fantasty/horror/science fiction writer who wrote The Martian Chronicles and the illustrated Man amongst others. Fahrenheit 451 is a story about a dystopian society where books have been outlawed by a government fearing an independent-thinking public and a fireman whose duty iti s to burn any found.
