Brown has credibility problems of his own. A New York Times poll showed that 59% of voters think he says whatever voters want to hear. His opportunistic shifts on issues over the years led one local writer to conclude that he has more positions than the Kama Sutra. Clinton sought to exploit Brown's reputation for shiftiness by harping on his rival's plan for a 13% flat tax to replace the current tax code. The flat tax has been pilloried by most economists as regressive and disastrous to the poor. It would be especially costly for New Yorkers because...
NOTES FROM UNDERGROUND, Moscow Theater for Young Spectators. Soviet audiences are no longer shocked by Dostoyevsky's long-banned philosophical ramble or, for that matter, by the full frontal nudity staged by director Kama Ginkas...

...Moscow with the military technology used to subjugate the Soviet Union's neighbors and threaten American national security. The Ford Motor Company constructed an automobile plant at Gorkii which produces motors for the T-72 tank, the workhouse of the Soviet army in Afghanistan. Swindell-Dressler helped build the Kama River Truck plant which also produces vehicles used by the Red Army in Afghanistan. The Bryant Chucking Grinder Company of Vermont sold the Kremlin the ball bearings without which the construction of the SS-20 missile would have been impossible. J.

When the U.S. sent young scholars to Moscow to study Slavic languages, the Soviets exchanged "graduate students" who were often middle-age technocrats with a more than academic interest in microcircuitry. A huge truck factory built in the Soviet Kama region with U.S. financing and know-how, all acquired aboveboard, was put to work making the army transports that now convoy Soviet troops over the Afghanistan countryside. Far worse, grinding machines that can craft tiny ballbearings, legally sold to the Soviets by a small Vermont company in 1972, have...
