Surrounded by an honor guard of garbagemen aboard new snowplows, Lindsay soothed housewives with promises that they would never be snowbound again.

Sakharov called for increased freedom of thought in Russia and a deliberate convergence of the U.S. and Soviet systems. The Tallin Three go even farther. While openly praising the West, they condemn Communism for its low standard of living and call upon the people to rise against the regime.
