Although smaller presses sometimes complain about being overshadowed, the convergence of genres and fans allows for generous spillage. Of the publishers I spoke with, all were having successful sales. Several were debuting new books at the con. Drawn and Quarterly premiered the new "Acme Novelty Datebook," a hardcover collection of pages from Chris Ware's sketchbook ($39.95). Ware is one of the medium's outright geniuses and the chance to peer into his unpolished doodles should not be missed. Another great find was a little hardcover called "War Time and Play Time" ($15) by Luc Leplae. Born in Belgium...
Nothing new here: the government has been selling solar for years with generous tax incentives. Most of the public, though, isn't buying. And people who do often have memorable experiences. A quarter-century ago, the owners of a 13-story, 64-unit co-op at 924 West End Avenue on New York City's Upper West Side erected a steel framework on the rooftop, welded it to the building's steel beams and attached 117 solar-collector panels.

The loftiest aspiration of the marchers?speeding up democratic reforms to allow a directly elected Chief Executive and legislature by 2007 at the earliest?requires a big, generous and highly uncharacteristic nod from Beijing. In the Chinese-fire-drill events of two weeks back, it seemed that Beijing, or some leadership faction there, might have been supporting the democracy movement in Hong Kong and undercutting Tung. As days went by, those signals proved wrong, and Beijing has come...
Later in the day the president toured a Ford manufacturing plant. Tour is perhaps a generous term. That's what it was called on the schedule and that's what the workers at the plant were expecting, but Bush had other ideas. He was running uncharacteristically late for the rigidly on-time President. He left a lunch with Mbeki fifty minutes off the mark, and made up for it by cutting 80 minutes of personal time, but he saw a chance to clip a little more time by speeding up the tour...
