...truly grateful that TIME's art critic Robert Hughes survived his terrible auto accident [DISPATCH, Oct. 11]. But some of his comments disturbed me, as I'm sure they did other readers. After having his life saved, Hughes said, "Jesus must have been busy...he didn't show." That offends me. I am Hindu, and faith is deeply rooted in me. Though this was not a fairy-tale ending or a religious experience for Hughes, someone holds this life that we all cherish. You may call him Christ, Allah, Vishnu or Bob, for that matter, but Hughes shouldn't think...
Ours is the only country in the world that has suffered through a nuclear bomb. We Japanese know firsthand how life threatening nuclear power is. Did JCO forget the terror of this invisible force? We must once again come to terms with the horrors of the nuclear age and investigate the security of all the nuclear facilities in Japan. MEGMI YASHIRO Okegawa, Japan...
...government was for such an emergency. Even though I was within the affected area, I went outside in the rain and slept with my windows open. I know many people who did the same on the night of the accident because of the lack of information. Now I must see the young students I teach line up to get checked for radiation. I hope the citizens in Tokaimura and the surrounding areas will take an active role in making sure a life-threatening nuclear accident like this doesn't happen again. NAOMI COOK Kanasago, Japan...
...teenage boy fleeing the Chinese Red Army, I experienced an air raid by U.S. forces on Jan. 4, 1951, about three miles south of Seoul. At first a few fighter aircraft circled above our heads. The flyers must have seen that we were refugees, mostly women, children and the elderly. In the next instant dozens around me were burning to death as fire bombs fell indiscriminately. This scene is not one that will ever fade for me, even after almost 50 years. At the time I thought that such horrific acts were perhaps inevitable during the course...
...Otherwise they'll crush you. Brown & Williamson CEO Thomas Sandefur (played by Michael Gambon) has a manner as smooth as the draw of a Kool menthol into the lungs, and every bit as toxic. A CBS attorney (Gina Gershon) softly, crisply tells the lords of 60 Minutes that they must submit to a higher authority--Mammon. The byline is nothing compared to the bottom line. It's a dark reality that Mike Wallace (a deft impersonation by Christopher Plummer) has to juggle. Does his loyalty belong to his current CBS bosses or to the ghost of Edward R. Murrow...
