...Bravo and congratulations to Janet Reno, the Department of Justice and Judge Jackson for standing up to and beating Microsoft, at least in the first round. As much as Americans love their financial heroes, they love their freedoms, financial and otherwise, more. GRANT D. CYRUS Boulder, Colo...

The artist's recorded voice whispers Lincoln's second Inaugural Address, with its moving call for healing during the savagery of the Civil War, but it too is interpreted, spelled out in the phonetic alphabet used by pilots (Alfa for a, Bravo for b), making it nearly impossible to fathom...
