Opposition leaders rejoiced at Park's problems. Former President Po Sun Yun said that Park "should shed his belief in the almightiness of bayonets" before condemning "the students' belief in the almightiness of demonstrations."

There is a panty brief with a printed-on image of an oversized zipper that never expected to or could get zipped, another with an American-flag motif. A third has a pair of eyes that wink from the rear, shed a tear in the front−virtually demanding comment from hasty psychoanalysts.

His personal Ho Chi Minh trail has led him through the widest range of revolutionary activity experienced by any living Red leader. En route, he shed identities like snakeskins, metamorphosing from cabin boy to pastry cook, from poet to guerrilla leader, from Parisian photo retoucher to pseudo-Buddhist monk. His name-changes alone would fill an address book (some 20 have been pinned down, ranging from Nguyen "the Victorious" to "Old Chap" Wang). But beneath the chimeric...
