  • But Is It True? A Citizen's Guide to Environmental Health and Safety Issues by Aaron Wildavsky from Harvard Press, A Moment on the Earth: The Coming Age of Environmental Optimism by Gregg Easterbrook from Viking, The New Ecological Order by Luc Ferry translated by Carol Volk from University of Chicago Press, and related reviews by D. A. Price, The American Spectator, September 1995 pp 68-70 and by A. Brinkley, The New Republic, October 2, 1995, pp 50-53. The enviros are losing. These books explain why.

  • Chlorine and Health published by the American Council on Science and Health, 1995, Broadway, 2nd Floor, New York, NY 10023-5860, and "Durable Facts About Plastic Unwrap Alarmist Green Hype'' in Citizen Outlook 10, Number 5, pp 1-3 (1995), available from P.O. Box 65722, Washington, DC 20035. These provide facts with which to repel the enviro attacks on chlorine and plastics.

  • "Power from plutonium'' in Nuclear Issues 17 No. 9 (1995), available from APG, 8 Ruvigny Mansions, Embankment, Putney, London SW15 1LE. Plutonium already produces part of our nuclear power, since it is made and then fissioned in a normal uranium fueled reactor. Recycling and also breeding plutonium provides an additional wonderful energy source for those nations with sensible leadership.

  • "Captain Rockwood Who?'' in Graffiti for Intellectuals, August 21, 1995, p1. Also read the entire September 5, 1995 issue. Published by the Southern California Council for Soviet Jews and written by Si Frumkin, this newsletter is available from P. O. Box 1542, Studio City, CA 91614-0542. Captain Rockwood is in trouble for refusing to ignore political imprisonment, torture, and murder by the current government of Haiti. We always enjoy reading this excellent newsletter.

  • "He Did the Hard Job: Going Beyond Hype Of Fantastic Discovery'' by T. Petzinger in The Wall Street Journal, September 15, 1995, pB1 about the development of practical high temperature superconducting wire by Gregory Yurek. His company, American Superconductor Corporation, recently filled its first commercial order of $53,000 for superconducting wire. Why not just make a list of productive people like this and randomly choose one for President?
