Comment on the days events and newsmakers from an offbeat perspective, getting to the core of things, that's the New Yorker. Usually a good fiction piece and some music, books and movie reviews add to the sophisticated mix that makes up this magazine. You won't see many photos, but there are cartoons and line drawings. And the writing is generally good. 5 new of

most interesting piece i saw in the nyer was the discussion of the story of O's author, pauline reage about two years ago. very cool.

And, I think it's this week, its all *Indian fiction* and a very interesting piece about the scandalous story of Indian politics over several decades that's about to jolt the Indian continent. My, humdog, I'm awfully glad you stopped by. If you head South, please come by and visit us at the Spring!

from arice: There's a fantastic article about biological weapons and the people who make them in the current issue of the New Yorker. Very chilling and confirms what many of us have been saying here, that the stuff could very easily be distributed just by tossing some in the air ducts of the subway, or even just letting it fly on a breezy day.
