...golf cart to the post office each day. The area 30 miles north of San Diego is a historic landmark, California's oldest planned community and a place so beautiful a writer in the 1940s described it as "the pocket where the Creator keeps all his treasures. Anything will grow there." Live and let live, in fact.

...criminal trial of suspect Timothy McVeigh. In Oklahoma City, fewer than 75 survivors and relatives showed up at the 320-seat auditorium set aside by the federal government in an FAA building to watch the proceedings on closed-circuit television, though demand for seats is expected to grow keen once the trial begins. While extensive security precautions have been taken to lock down the area around the Denver courthouse where McVeigh is being held, the initial interviews of four potential jurors from a pool of 380 stirred little attention. McVeigh, in a blue shirt and khakis, smiled and greeted...
