...bald-headed man in the front row arose and came down the aisle. He paused, and bit his fingernail. "Can you imagine?" he said. "I mean, can you imagine? My own children." He loosened his tie.

Beyond all this, the President was bound to bear the brunt of a special American reaction: the U.S. takes deep pride in its technical skills and technological prowess, in its ability to get things done-first. Now, despite all the rational explanations, there...
