...student activists. (The city's Muslim clergy, for example, showed no hesitation in condemning the Planet Hollywood bombing.) Fundamentalists were instrumental in creating People Against Gangs and Drugs (PAGAD), a vigilante organization that launched a war on crack dealers -- with pipe bombs as the weapon of choice. (Initial reports suggest a similar device was used in Planet Hollywood.) PAGAD has fought the police too, which is why most of the fundamentalists are well known to local lawmen. As if to make the job of law enforcement even easier, members of the group that claimed responsibility held public demonstrations when President...
Although it is too strong to say, as a White House staff member did last week, that "there is now settled law that the President can't consult with his closest advisers," the whole White House staff feels under siege. Some legal experts suggest this shouldn't affect the normal, noncriminal workings of the White House, but that's too technical a reading, especially in a climate when so much that is political has the potential to be criminalized.

...compared with rocks from the moon -- the control experiment of lifelessness. "Within an hour of looking at the lunar meteorites, we knew," said Sears. "We found objects on the lunar meteorites that we cannot distinguish from the Martian meteorites." What's more, iron oxide crystals on the rock suggest it was formed at temperatures eight times higher than boiling water -- too high to support life. Not that this means the Red Planet is and always was a dead planet; we just have to look at the other rocks, that...
