...tente that is expected to arise from the recent state treaty signed by the Federal Republic of Germany and the German Democratic Republic, East German authorities are reinforcing the deadly barrier. In recent months, for example, workmen have been methodically replacing the barbed wire fences with new gratings; their mesh is too fine to climb...

With one swing of his geological hammer, he accidentally clobbered the $13,000,000 moon car, knocking off part of one of its rear fiberglass fenders, which act as shields against the spray of dust churned up by the rover's wire mesh wheels.

There has been very little looting up to now, probably because the "duka-wallahs" (Asian shopkeepers) have always secured their stores as if they were Fort Knox...
