Harsh Words. By the laws of Communist meteorology, when Soviet-Yugoslav relations get warmer, Soviet-Chinese relations automatically grow more turbulent. Last week the Red Chinese and their distant Albanian allies renewed their blistering criticism of Tito and that "modern revisionist," Khrushchev. Peking was especially angry over Tito's interview with Columnist Pearson, in which Tito called the Chinese warmongers. Rising to Peking's defense, the Albanians lashed out at Khrushchev for agreeing to sell MIG jet fighters to India, for possible use against "innocent" Chinese...

...stronger in the past, the stars must have been smaller. They were probably brighter, too, because their denser interiors generated more thermonuclear energy than they do now. The sun, a typical star, must have been bright enough 2 billion years ago to make the surface of the earth much warmer than it is now. Perhaps this is why the oldest fossils found in ancient rocks are remains of algae, some of whose modern descendants still thrive in hot water...
