Chemical Choice. That sudden change in carbon ratios was highly significant to Schopf and his collaborators, Dorothy Z. Oehler of U.C.L.A. and Keith A. Kvenvolden of NASA'S Ames Research Center. In a recent report in the journal Science, they proceed to explain...
...based antiwar collective, called an April 19 antiwar march slated to shut down a military recruiting office in downtown Boston. After several hundred demonstrators risked arrest for about one-half hour by sitting in front of the Tremont St. office, a PCPJ spokesman unexpectedly announced that the march would proceed to a "military-linked target" somewhere in the Cambridge area.

The outside power has become a snout-nosed prod ("the Goad") that rattles on stage to awake first Klein, then Volpe, who like wind-up tops proceed to go through their daily routine. Klein and Volpe again are a nice contrast: Klein prays to the ceiling and pops a pill before he can slump out of his sack; Volpe is already speeding: he shadow-boxes even while he eats his morning carrot...
