Nixon's reserve does not indicate an increase in White House secrecy, says Atkins. Despite Okamoto's constant presence, Johnson was always very careful about which photos were released, screening each shot personally. "If a picture was disapproved, it would disappear forever," says Atkins. Nixon, in contrast, leaves such matters to Atkins. "You can photograph Nixon up and down, front and back," says Atkins.

Pseudo philosophers, crypto-religionists, pyrotechnical polemicists (all fuse and no bang) are bound to move in. The key question for all religions is how to cope with and justify the control over man of a universe that appears to be spectacularly indifferent. Death is the most conspicuous example of such control...
