...Vital Core. For the Thais, proud and sensitive to any hint of interference by farangs or foreigners in their national life, the enormous U.S. buildup is a painful concession to the grim facts of Southeast Asian life. They talk about it as little as they can, admit virtually nothing officially, and have carefully made only gentleman's agreements, one at a time, for U.S. use of their bases. The U.S. in turn respects Thai feelings by trying, as one official puts it, to present a "low silhouette" on the Thai landscape. But inevitably, with the growing accumulation of American...

...thick runways. Sattahip's fuel pipeline system will eventually extend to Korat, where the U.S. Army's 9th Logistical Command has already stockpiled enough guns, tanks, trucks and ammunition for a full division. U.S. and Thai engineers are constructing the Bangkok Bypass, a strategic highway to carry vital traffic northward past the capital.

...question of when to "pull the plug" and let death occur has acquired new urgency with the practice of transplanting kidneys and other vital organs. Transplant surgeons want organs as fresh as possible; the chance that a cadaver kidney will work well in the recipient patient is vastly increased if it can be removed immediately after circulation has stopped.
