In this world, firemen would start fires rather than stop them.  The way the author described this world, sounded very depressing and boring.  The people in this society would do nothing but watch tv and listen to the radio, this was a everyday thing where the people would not be social at all.         About half way through, Montag meets Clarisse; a neighbor.  Clarisse opened his eyes about his miserable and empty life, by asking questions that Montag never thought about.
