Walton's Wonders

After hearing Frankenstein's story being told to Captain Walton, it almost seems you are waking up, because I had gotten so tangled in the plot that I had forgotten completely about the fact that it was being told to help out Captain Walton. In the end, after Frankenstein dies, I couldn't help but hope that Captain Walton would take this man's advice and not search for knowledge that should not be known by man. Did anyone else feel desperate for Captain Walton to realize the moral of Frankenstein's story?
