What happens now to Olliemania? Senate Committee Chairman Daniel Inouye asked the question obliquely in his farewell address to North at the conclusion of day six. With perhaps a touch of irony -- it is hard to tell with the dour Senator -- he wished the newly minted hero and his lady well, as they set off into the sunset...
North's charge sounded plausible -- until Senator Daniel Inouye neatly shredded it. One of the two Senators, it turned out, had said "No comment" when asked by TV reporters about a possible Libya raid. The other had merely advised people to tune in the President.

The Soubeyrans' idea is simple: stop up the neighbor's spring. But the execution is grim and protracted; the plotters stand by, offering sympathy but no practical assistance as Jean descends first to exhaustion...
