Without even realizing it, we have begun case-by-casing what "improvements" we can ethically tolerate. This will eventually create a snowball effect, and we will find ourselves in a genetic twilight zone. The only way really to fix what we have done will be to continue fixing our genes. Here's hoping for wiser, not smarter. KELLY SCHROTER Middletown...

Ross Perot had it half right; he wanted to fix American politics but chickened out, sacrificing his credibility for a protectionism that went out of style and for love of his own ego. The better half of Perot's posse spawned Jesse Ventura; the failed half degraded into the acid populism that is the stock-in-trade of Pat Buchanan. It plays well in iconoclastic New Hampshire, and with farmers and union men, but if a party aspires to one day leave the fringe in the cause of reform, it is a poison pill. Buchanan is no reformer...
