...moment of doubt, Timesman Sulzberger was not alone among U.S. columnists-nor for that matter, among editorial cartoonists, both in the U.S. and abroad (see cuts). The dark clouds gathering above Berlin, the deadly mushrooms sprouting above the Siberian testing ground at Novaya Zemlya all combined to give some journalists the visible shakes.
