Lang has written at least as much during his information campaigns. His "cc list" of correspondents, which ranges from OMB Director David Stockman and columnist Jack Anderson to President Bok, transmits Lang's views on issues to every newspaper, government official, book reviewer and professor whose involvement he gets wind...
...Lang says. Several years ago Lang's refusal to comply with Circular A-21's effort reporting requirements forced Yale to turn down a government grant on Lang's behalf. The Times's coverage of the incident so enraged Lang that he sent the author--and those on his cc list--a seven-page critique, labeling it superficial and irresponsible...
...International Trade Commission. In January, the I.T.C. agreed with Harley that the company needed temporary relief from the big wheels of Yamaha, Suzuki, Kawasaki and Honda. Since 1978, H-D has lost more than a third of the big-bike market (engines of more than 700-cc displacement) to the Japanese. According to Harley-Davidson Chairman Vaughn L.

The meager skeleton shows no noticeable anatomical variations from the remains of another ancestor, the famed 3.6 million-year-old "Lucy," who has been regarded until now as man's oldest direct kin. Such evolutionary stability over some...
