from Dale Reynolds in London
Most of you may have seen Jack Lemmon in the lead role of "Mister Roberts," the mild 'moral and laundry officer' of a US Navy ship, who gets the best of his tyrant commanding officer, played by the great James Cagney. Well, George Bush is no Jimmy Cagney, human enough to accept defeat. And this Mr Roberts, lacklustre as his legal career may be, is no mild Jack Lemmon hero. Anything but. Please welcome this contribution from my friend, the journalist, Leigh Saavedra. John Roberts: Part of the Downward Spiral by Leigh Saavedra (formerly writing ... more »

London. 14:15 GST. July 21, 2005
London police are regarding today's attacks on one bus in East London and at three underground stations spread across London as not of major significance.

Letter From London: Just Two People Talking

The once-a-week-only submission from Dale Reynolds, correspondent in London.
Dear readers and listeners: this is not a typical submission. It is not about politics per se. As it is about "ordinary" people, though, it is about the best of politics anywhere. Recently I talked with my Welsh professor of physics friend, Terry. He's a brilliant, engaging man, about 50, as sociable as he is intellectual and -- out there in his own zone of physics reality despite being able to converse convivially, at the same time, with anyone, about anything.
