...Liberator, I've found a Liberator," rose an excited cry. Cheers and laughter followed the discovery. Ancient copies of the Boston Evening Transcript, New England Farmer, and the Fashion Herald were trampled underfoot in the stampede to find a precious Liberator. When the search was exhausted, people collected the less exotic relics, such as Intourist travel folders...
Ostensibly the new Oppenheimer play is based on the 3,000-page transcript of the Atomic Energy Commission hearings. And at moments, real-life testimony reads better than Strangelove and Fail-Safe, as when Oppenheimer says: "In all Russia there are only two targets where a hydrogen bomb would make sense-Moscow and Leningrad-whereas in the U.S. we have 50.

In the wake of publication, the commission's chief counsel, J. Lee Rankin, expressed his distress, not that the confidential transcript had been leaked, but that anyone might think a commission member had leaked it. "There were other people who had access to the testimony, lawyers for the defense and the prosecution during Ruby's trial," he said. Going somewhat above and beyond the call of duty, the commission then...
