There were Vietniks and Peaceniks, Trotskyites and potskyites, a contingent of 24 Sioux Indians from South Dakota and a band of Iroquois led by one Mad Bear Anderson. When a loudspeaker demanded that the Indians assemble at Truck No. 3 for the 30-block march to the United Nations, hundreds of New Yorkers looked for the truck to get a glimpse of a real live Indian...
...saucer. Its population areas are laid out in Orwellian modules, with all the foreign-ministry officials living here, the bank employees there, the military officers over there.

What is needed is balance, and raw courage-the courage to climb aboard a heaving, spinning animal that outweighs you by nearly a ton, and stay there for 8 sec. Mahan readily admits to a natural distaste for bulls: "No horse, no matter how mean, will deliberately charge you after he throws you. But a Brahma bull will; he'll come right after you, hoping...
