...morning wind, have built up on the side of the Marcus Garvey House a few blocks up the hill from Dudley Station--"Vote White," "Vote Kennedy," "Let's Do It Again, Elect Bill Owens" (the state senator). Even with desegregation, Boston inner-city residents will have to cope with their version of the ills that have caused all races to flee Detroit, which has no desegregation, like a city gutted by steady bombing. James Coleman, the University of Chicago sociologist, attributed this "white flight" in other cities under desegregation to busing, but he neglected to ask the suburban refugees...
...Republican Party, the legacy of Watergate, the polls showing that most Americans believe he should not have pardoned Richard Nixon, the lack of a national constituency for an unelected President, the scathing attacks by Reagan on his leadership abilities, and the absence of great faith in his capacity to cope with the job.

So far, only the doctors who have to cope with the stoned victims seem concerned...
Pearlman and his colleague at the Boston Veterans' Administration Hospital, Psychoanalyst Ramon Greenberg, are among those who argue that REM sleep does more than aid memory: it also helps people cope with daily stress. Paradoxically, it is while sleeping that they assimilate traumatic experiences they have had during the day. In recording the sleep patterns of psychiatric patients, Pearlman and Greenberg found a rise in REM sleep occurred after stressful discussions. In an experiment with nonpatients, the need for REM sleep rose sharply after exposure to distressing movies. The researchers' conclusion: the memory function and coping function...
