Somewhat stunned that my application wasn't good enough to hike with other members of the class of 1999, I could only wonder whether or not I was somehow on the lower end of the 1601.

Last week Autodesk (800-215-9742) released its first consumer offering, Picture This Home! Kitchen, which packs a Ferrari-class graphics engine into a $50 CD-ROM.

...Orthogenic School before his accidental death in 1948. Meeting some 20 years later, Bettelheim loftily informed Pollak that his father had been an ineffective "schlemiel," that his Medea-like mother was wholly to blame for Stephen's emotional ills and, quite falsely, that the brother had committed suicide. No wonder Pollak left that encounter mentally comparing Bettelheim to "the evil Doctor Sivana, arch-nemesis of Captain Marvel...
