Scott was, by then, visiting a businessman named Nathan once or twice a week regularly. He had met Nathan in late August, in a bar. At that period in his life, Scott was telling everybody the Truth. Eloquently. He was making an effort to quit feeling embarrassed by his intellect, overcome his shyness, and to really help humanity. So when Nathan offered to buy him a beer, Scott smiled brightly and said...
...dimension of terror from the inside added sharply to the burdens of Premier-designate Golda Meir, who, as expected, was voted in by the Israel Labor Party to succeed the late Premier Levi Eshkol last week. Only a day after the vote, trouble flared along the Suez Canal. Hours after Israeli jets shot down an Egyptian MIG-21 over the Sinai, artillery opened up along the 60-mile canal front.

But when Test Pilot Andre Turcat gunned the cluster of four jet engines, the Concorde climbed swiftly and steeply. After 27 minutes of subsonic flight, it made an equally flawless, steep-pitched landing. After that, champagne corks popped around Blagnac Airport, and newspapers in Britain and France brought...
...wrote this letter late Sunday night, after spending two hours in the Eliot laundry room talking with the three nude people and a number of my fellow house members. Though this "letter" was initially intended simply for my own personal satisfaction, I felt inclined to voice my impressions openly after reading the coverage of the event put forth in Monday's CRIMSON. I think the CRIMSON article, with all its attention on the details of the episode, failed to present an adequate analysis of the interaction and communication of ideas that occurred among the people assembled in the laundry room...
