Tim -

ast weeks Time magazine cover. Hey, even some of the *hardcores* I know thought it was a little too far out.

Interesting reaction. I'm a rabid anti Luce type. It was a BIG deal for me to actually buy that issue of TIME.

And I thought (particularly given the source) it was a pretty good piece. I'll re-read it, but the only significant factual innaccuracy that jumped out at me was the statement that Bob Bemer "authored" much of COBOL.

Of course, the half-page picture of the family with food stocks was inflametory, but that's to be expected from a Luce rag.
