There was another problem that might have even more bearing on international relationships: to anyone willing to accept obvious facts, the U.S.S.R. has far outstripped the U.S. in the reach for space.

...most elusive fish in the sea, the striper is so unpredictable that surf casters have gone for years without a strike. Stripers can sulk offshore for hours far beyond the reach of a line, then flash for the beach on a whim. They can ignore the most ingenious lures bobbed past their noses by experts, then hit something splashed into the water by a novice.
