Book Excerpt for the Day


    Senators pounded their podia, demanding answers.  The president declared that he, too, wanted answers.  The CIA said that although it would have no official comment, it, too, perhaps even more than the president and the senators, wanted answers.  The secretary of state said that there might in fact be no answers, but if there were, he certainly would be interested in hearing them.  The secretary general of the United Nations said that he was reasonably certain answers existed, but first the right questions must be asked, and then they would have to be translated, and this would take time.
