...schools have gone so far as to offer burial plots on campus. The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, for example, is the final resting place of alum Charles Kuralt, the former CBS newsman. But maybe that's taking things a step too far--for now, anyway. Boomers are only turning 60. They're not thinking about dying.

Everybody knows what the world looks like these days. They've seen it on TV. So as a writer you have to be more transcendental, more allegorical. Nearly everything has more...
...years of public statements by abortion-rights supporters who stipulated that, as a Planned Parenthood official said in 1978, "Strictly speaking, no one is for abortion... We are pro-choice."
