Opening with a menacing remix of the ordinarily lovely "Hymn," Moby proceeded to dive into his back catalog of early '90s house tracks, accompanied by two drummers and a live bass player, a la Squarepusher. The shirtless Mr. Hall himself bounced all over the stage, becoming an occasional third drummer and pounding on keyboards from time to time. "Ah Ah" and "Bring Back My Happiness" were played for speed, a fact appreciated by the crowds. The rave classic "Move," stretched to eight minutes, was far too short. Euphoria was the order of the night as Moby repeatedly plunged into...

...pumping out 8% more greenhouse gases than in 1990. Reversing that trend would be tough in any case, but politics makes it even tougher. An alliance of industry leaders and Republicans loudly insists that making Americans adopt costly energy-saving technology could put the economy into a crash dive. At the very least, they say, a global-warming treaty must impose strict cutbacks on poor, developing countries as well as on rich, industrial nations.

...more serious too; the New York City drill is an example. But experts insist the country is essentially insecure. The borders are porous, the government cannot keep track of routine visa violators, and the population is forever on the move. The U.S. is a sea into which evildoers can dive and remain submerged. Terrorists, like anyone else, have little difficulty obtaining guns or the simple makings for oil-barrel truck bombs. Now the new terror could be an even more lethal destroyer--microbes. Germ weapons are small, cheap, easy to hide, simple to dispense and horribly effective. They...
