...visions of herself as interpreted by Marker. Instead of treating these sequentially, Marker intercuts these segments, making sure to indicate clearly which point of view is being given. Multiple points of view, equally valid and independent, destroy any direct causal relationship between Koumiko and the city of Tokyo. Both exist and are conscious of each other, but to explain Tokyo would no more solve the Koumiko mystery than explaining Koumiko would solve Tokyo...

Called Special Drawing Rights, or SDRs, the new reserves will reduce nations' dependence on the diminishing supply of real gold in global finance and create new assets to sustain the growth of world trade.

And his logic is still unsurpassed. Everyone knows that Adam and Eve's "rebellion against God" concerned more than the eating of an apple. Sex, I believe, was the issue...
