It’s also pretty freaky that when the U.S. tax code began to require Social Security numbers for listed dependents, seven million American children “disappeared.” Who knew that such fun and interesting questions could be solved through incredibly difficult multiple regressions? Or, for that matter, that an economist could write an easy-to-read book with such...

It may have voice-recognition, wi-fi and touch-screen controls similar to the technology in its newest handheld, the DS. Satoru Iwata, Nintendo's president, has criticized the ballooning money spent on game and console development. Unfortunately, it's a bit late for that. --By Jim Frederick/Tokyo
...spiritual promise of eternal life. True believers should be cheering John Paul's departure and longing for the day they meet again with him in God's very own realm. Humberto Sarkis Beverly Hills, California, U.S. Imagine: the realpolitik savvy of a Henry Kissinger combined with the moral code of a Mother Teresa. John Paul II's worldliness combined with his faith in the other world made him a remarkably effective global leader. John Anderson Elkmont, Alabama...
