...Your cover story is long overdue. Although I am of limited means, I can think of no more impoverishing act than buying cheap, conventional meats and produce because organic food is "too expensive."

Guess what: the cost to our families--and to the earth--of forgoing organic food is a lot higher. John Lipman, BREWSTER, MASS...

The U.S. plan, by comparison, will cover roughly double that portion, says Simon Tilford, chief economist at the Centre for European Reform in London. (Unlike the U.S., Europe, didn't include the petroleum sector in its own scheme, preferring to more heavily tax the industry instead.) Extending the "fiendishly complicated" system, as Tilford calls it, would be enormously difficult...
...willing to do Washington's bidding. But even so, al-Qaeda remains a marginal factor. Bin Laden may have imagined that 9/11 would anoint him the head of a resurgent caliphate in the making, but instead it has reduced him and his movement to a life of duck-and-cover in Pakistan's wild frontier - and a political address otherwise known as oblivion.
