On retirement the worker would repay Uncle Sam $3 of every $4 he or she had in the account. Taxpayers under this scheme might earn somewhat less, in total, than under Moynihan's plan--though that one-fourth share could add up over decades. On the other hand, they would...
...even if e-mail is considered inviolate, there are tactics by which the alert parent can control it. America Online, the Internet service provider used by nearly 17 million households, allows parents to limit incoming e-mail to a finite list of correspondents.

The Pentagon, which now relies heavily on Aviano for NATO's Kosovo campaign, has since redoubled its efforts to ensure that safety guidelines for pilots in Italy are made clear...
