...friendship may also have saved his life. Brown chanced upon Harris in the school parking lot just minutes before the shooting began. Harris was pulling a duffel bag of materiel from his car; Brown says he didn't know what was in it. He mentioned a philosophy test Harris had missed that morning. "Doesn't matter anymore," said Harris. Brown says he didn't know what that meant--nor what Harris was planning when he told Brown to get away from the school, saying, "Brooks, I like you. Now get out of here. Go home." Others who know Harris believe...
...playing with blockbuster material. Known as "legacy codes," the 100 or so calculations that he put on his hard drive contained a gold mine of nuclear secrets--reams of physics equations and weapon-test results and warhead designs--painstakingly amassed by the U.S. since the government began building atom bombs at Los Alamos a half-century ago. When Energy Department officials discovered in March that a mid-level scientist had copied programs from the prized database, they were chagrined. That the scientist was the Taiwanese-born Lee, the same one fired on March 8 amid fears that he might already...
...Chinese general would rely on the validity of stolen designs alone to build and deploy new nuclear weapons. Instead the time-honed technical expertise found in the U.S. codes could allow savvy foreign scientists to measure the punch packed by weapons they already possess without actually testing them. It's a doozy for the Chinese, who may have pocketed U.S. secrets just before they signed the nuclear test-ban treaty in 1996. And then there are the nuclear wannabes from Pyongyang to Tripoli, to whom the Chinese might sell the codes. Warns Gary Milhollin of the Wisconsin Project on Nuclear...
...mysteries surrounding Lee. The engineer first came to the FBI's attention in 1982, when an FBI wiretap picked up a phone conversation between Lee and another Taiwanese-born scientist who was under investigation for passing U.S. neutron-bomb secrets to the Chinese. The FBI then administered a polygraph test on Lee. He passed with flying colors. In the mid-'80s, he and his wife again appeared on the FBI's radar screen, when they approached the Albuquerque field office and volunteered to inform on visiting delegations from the People's Republic and on Chinese scientists...
Rule 1 Know what your kid is playing. If possible, rent and test a game before you buy it. We made the mistake of buying GoldenEye 007, not realizing that the whole game is played peering over a revolver...
