...Gerbils, or sand rats, may make desirable pets, but they are voracious seed and plant eaters. Once they become abundant, they are hard to eradicate, and the damage they do to agriculture is enormous: in countries where they have established colonies, they do heavy damage to wheat, oat and other grain crops. The introduction of gerbils is banned by both the California Department of Agriculture and the Department of Fish and Game, which enforce a joint regulation...

But the stories could happen in Flatbush, Beirut, or Port of Spain. A real western is an American commedia dell' arte, a stylized and inviolable cliche that is easily destroyed by subtlety and depth...
...carcinoma) is associated not only with irritation from industrial fumes or heavy smoking, but also with a high level of male sex hor mones in the patients. Adenocarcinoma, less common, is the usual form in women and in men with high outputs of female hormones. A third type, called "oat-cell" or undifferentiated, occurs in men whose adrenal glands put out an excess of corti sone-type hormones...
