Officers of the Thurston County
Sheriff's Department arrested two auto
theft suspects in P-dorm late Tuesday
evening.
Christopher Dailey and
Kevin Evans, both Seattle residents, are
being held in Thurston County Jail.
According to jail officials, bail for
Dailey, who had outstanding warrants,
has been set at $5,000 cash or bond.
Bail was set at $2,500 for Evans. The
two men may also be charged with the
possession of additional stolen property.
The vehicle, a silver Mazda RX7,
was stolen in the King County area, and
was parked in the Cooper's Glen
Apartments parking lot at the time of the
arrest, according to Campus Security
Officer Darwin Eddy.
A caller from T-dorm, concerned
about what appeared to be a weapon in
the possession of the two men, notified
Campus Security. Thurston County was
called and arrived on the scene. The
"weapon" was later found to be a
cigarette lighter that resembled a gun.
Thurston County Jail denied rumors
of murder or drug possession charges.
These charges seem to have no basis in
fact.

Evergreen feels crunch as cuts hit campus
by Giselle Weyte
As the first step to reducing a
projected budget deficit of nearly $900
million, Gov. Booth Gardner ordered all
state agencies to cut their budgets by
2.5%, effective December 1.
The full effect of these cuts on
Evergreen is not certain at this point, but
in order to prepare for these cuts a
hiring freeze was implemented in
September, as well as a freeze on
equipment acquisition. Now that the
2.5% cut is official, further cutbacks are
being implemented.
According
to
Bill
Zaugg,
Administrative Assistant to the Budget,
some of the specific ways that these cuts
will be felt at Evergreen are as follows:
-Academic Advising and First
Peoples Advising will now share one full
time employee, instead of each having a
half time employee, so one person will
work both half time office support jobs.
This is to save money on benefits:
approximately $4500 dollars.
-Housing is cutting $5000 from their
educational
programs
(safer
sex
workshops, etc) to supplement the Vice
President's budget.
-The Grievance Officer, previously
an on-call position (usually filled by a
faculty member, such as a psychology
professor) is permanently abolished, and
grievance mediators will be paid hourly
for time spent, saving $4,000.
-Rec Center staff hours will receive
Evaluation Week Mours
less state funding, so the Rec Center will
be more dependent on money from
summer sport camps, and other outside
income.
-Student application fees will be used
differently: state funds will no longer pay
the salaries of admissions staff, so
application fees which were used for
catalog publication fees, and software to
speed processing and transcript retrieval
will now be used to pay admissions staff.
-The Counseling Center will have two
full time and one half time counselor
instead of three full time counselors.
-The Media Production Center will be
open 15 fewer hours per week.
-The Library will purchase 350 less
books for the year and 80 less periodical

subscriptions, and abolish the threefourths time cataloguer position (currently
vacant).
-Additionally, financial aid statewide
will be reduced: 1500 students in
Washington will receive less aid.
Evergreen is preserving as much student
employment as possible, but there will
be 12 fewer student positions on campus.
Of the state's $15.7 billion budget,
$7.5 billion is protected from reduction.
This $7.5 billion funds basic education
(K-12), debt service on state bonds and
state pension contributions, which means
that the cuts must come out of the 8.2
billion remaining.

This demonstration is part of the
continuing international boycott of the

Rainforest Action Network. The boycott's
purpose is to draw attention to the

this region are threatening the continued
existence of several tribes of indigenous
forest dwellers, whose land-rights are
being blatantly disregarded by the
government of Sarawack and by the
Mitsubishi Corporation.
Most notably the Penan, Iban,
Kenyan, and Kelabit cultures are
predicted to fade into non-existence
within only six months to three years if
the massive deforestation that the
Mitsubishi Corporation and other
companies are involved with is not
completely halted.
Mitsubishi is by far the single
greatest perpetrator of this deforestation
and hence the easiest to target. This
boycott is a last ditch effort to help save
these tribes, and follows five years of
unsuccessful and ineffective letter writing
to both Mitsubishi and the government of
Sarawack.
The picket will take place rain or

to 3 p.m. outside Hanson Mitsubishi at

an estimated shortfall of $224 million; in
mid-November the revenue forecast
council announced a further decline in
the state's projected revenues, and an
actual decline in revenue collections.
The biennial shortfall is now estimated to
be $694 million.
The state also faces mandatory costs
in the areas of welfare and prison
caseloads, and other critical supplemental
requests that total $320 million. These
add up to more that a billion dollars that
would need to be cut from the $7.5
billion available for cuts.
According to Steve Trotter, Evergreen
Budget Officer, these principles have
been followed in making budget cuts:
To the extent possible, the cuts will
preserve the quality of instruction at The
Evergreen State College.
Passing on costs to other units is not
an acceptable reduction strategy.
To the extent possible, positions for
students, including work study and
institutional, will be preserved.
To the extent possible, staff and faculty
positions will be preserved.
LSD bust at TESC
by Bryan Connors
An LSD search and seizure occurred
Wednesday, November 28 in student
housing. Three hundred doses or "hits"
were confiscated in the raid.
Sheila D. Landers, a student and
resident of Evergreen, was arrested by
Thurston County Sheriff's Department
for possession of a controlled substance
with intent to deliver, according to
campus security. Her bail was set at
$5,000.
Officers from the Washington State
Patrol, the Thurston County Narcotics
Task Force, and Evergreen campus
security participated in the "bust."
"This is the first major bust we've
made in a long time," said Sergeant
Larry Savage, of campus security, on
Monday, Dec. 2, "but there is going to
be much more to come."
Landers has been released on her
own recognizance while awaiting trial.

In examining reduction plans, every
attempt should be made to look at
alternative ways in which the unit can
meet its requirements/service delivery in
the most cost effective manner. This
could include combining similar services
currently being delivered by multiple
areas/people into a single area/person.
Emphasis is being placed on
maintaining direct services to faculty and
students such as programs and facilities,
and at the 2.5% level no enrollment cuts
will be made.
This will mean an
increase in faculty load by 1/2 student
per faculty. Faculty chose to increase
their student load rather than take lose
funding for program secretaries, xerox
cards, etc.
Deeper cuts are anticipated; on January
15 further reductions will be discussed by
the Board of Trustees. At a 5% cut
level, more student services will be
affected; student enrollment will need to
be reduced from 3178 to 3050 and
reductions will be made in administrative
as well as maintenance and ground
operations.
Trotter says that cuts above the 2.5%
level will probably mean a tuition
increase as well as further cutbacks
across campus.

World War II 50th anniversary nears
International
student looks
back on Pearl
Harbor
by Naoya Kawashima
50 years have passed since Japan
attacked Pearl Harbor. I'm writing this
article to present a Japanese view on one
of the saddest incidents in history which
took place between Japan and the United
States. As an international student from
Japan, I feel the need to look back on
this historical event, to ponder on it and
to deeply regret the events that took lives
and caused distinction at Pearl Harbor.
Every year on this campus, quite a few
of we Evergreen Japanese students,
including EF language students, do our
best to share our culture which still
remains mysterious to most of you. But
I have noticed that very few of our
discussions are about historical war
events between the United States and
Japan.
This article is basically a compilation
of two Japanese magazine articles,
written by Naoki Komuro and Michihiro
Matsumoto, that I have translated. I hope
it will give Japanese and American
students a springboard for discussing
Pearl Harbor and other historical events.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt,
from a Jewish family himself, was
concerned about the spread of Nazi's
power throughout Europe. He was very
much against Hitler's anti-Jewish policy.
In order to destroy Hitler's power, he
thought the United States needed to join
the Allies and participate in the war. But
according to the Monroe Doctrine, the
United States was not supposed to
interfere with European countries. He
repeatedly spurred Hitler on to fight
against the United States. One of the
actions he took against Germany was to
urge Congress to pass the Lend-Lease
Act which enabled the U.S. navy to ship
weapons to England. Since England was
at war with Germany, this action was
clearly against international law even
though the Lend-Lease Act condoned the
shipment. In this way, the United States
disregarded her neutral policy and
tempted Germany to fight the United
States.
So the United States wanted to begin
a war against Germany, not Japan. I
want to make this point clear, in this
article.
But Hitler was not spurred. He
wanted to avoid starting a war with the
United States at that time, when Germany
was just getting control of all of Europe.
When President Roosevelt was re-elected
to serve as president for a third term, he
promised that the United States would
not begin any war. Anti-war sentiment
was very strong in the United States at
that time. It was only this president and
a handful of people under him who
wanted to have a war with Germany. My
next point is very important: President
Roosevelt thought about the Tripartite
Pact between Japan and Germany, and
believed that if a war broke out with
Japan, Germany would get involved and
therefore the United States could attack
Germany.
President Roosevelt then planned how
to begin a war with Japan. He started
So the U.S. wanted to
begin a war against
Germany, not Japan.
imposing an economic sanction against
Japan on Aug. 7, 1938. The following
year, the United States chose to break the
Japan/U.S. trade agreement. In 1940 the
United States cut off vital exports to
Japan: scrap iron, coal and staple goods.
U.S. Secretary of State Cordell Hull
stated in public that the United States had
been putting economical pressure on
Japan during the past year, and its effect
had started to appear. This statement
proves that the United States intended to
put Japan into an economically desperate
situation. On top of these, the United
States imposed an oil sanction to Japan
through Holland. To me, these sanctions
are almost a declaration of war. President
Roosevelt spurred Japan on to attacking
the United States. Today's state of
Japan/U.S. trade friction is not much
different from 50 years ago. If Japan
began to import rice, she would lose her
self-sufficiency in growing and could be
easily controlled by the United States.
The majority of the U.S. government
officials, the military and American
citizens were against war. It was only
President Roosevelt and his supporters
who wanted war. Cordell Hull, who was
under President Roosevelt's influence,
had talks with a Japanese ambassador,
Nomura. Hull was very firm during their
talks and implied the United States'
intention to engage in a war against
Japan. Both the Japanese government and
Nomura took Hull's words to be the
United States' majority opinion and
overreacted to his viewpoint. This official
meeting, which the Japanese mass media
reported with alarm, enhanced the antiUnited States movement already created
by the media.
So here is my conclusion. The attack
of Pearl Harbor could have been avoided
if the Japanese Ministry of Foreign
Affairs had correctly analyzed the United
States' situation and the real intention of
her economic sanctions on Japan, and if
the Japanese mass media had reported the
official talks between Hull and Nomura
more calmly and rationally.
50 years have passed since Japanese
attack on Pearl Harbor. I have no direct
experience of war in my life, and this
fact reinforces the importance of my
knowing the war, which did happen
between my country and the United
States. I deeply feel the regret for those
who lost their lives during World War II.

Blame it on the devil: Ingram lawsuits begin
by Chris Bader
It
was
not
without
much
consideration that I chose to write about
the Paul Ingram case.
First of all, it is a very complex
story, and I wondered whether I could
manage a cohesive retelling of it. As it
stands there is much more to this case
than could appear in a small set of
articles. At least I feel that I have
provided an alternate view of the story
which appeared in the Daily Olympian.
My second concern was that I was
wary of touching on the subject of child
abuse, especially since the evidence, or
lack thereof, in the Ingram case seems to
refute many of the victim's claims. I
certainly do not want to be accused of
discounting the evidence of victims in
sexual abuse cases.
I finally decided, however, that
refusing to discuss cases like Ingram's
will only hurt the future credibility of
child abuse investigations. In fact, cases
involving satanic hysteria are serving to
hurt the credibility of all sexual abuse
victims.
Despite what you may hear on
Geraldo or in the tabloids, there has
never been any conclusive, or even

nearly conclusive, evidence that large
satanic conspiracies are operating in our
midst. Certainly there are isolated
incidents of satanism, but nothing on the
scale proposed by those fundamentalist
Christians who believe in a nationwide
network of devil worshippers.
not apply in cases involving satanism,
because satanists are so good at hiding
their evidence. In other words, there is
never any evidence in satanism cases
because satanists never leave evidence.
That is more commonly called a circular
argument.
Another Washington I The Thurston County
Sheriff's Department is at
fault for letting the Ingram
investigation move from a
criminal case to a witch
trial, blurring the lines
between church and state.
When the devil is brought into a
sexual abuse case, it only obscures the
real issues involved. Parents abuse their
own children, physically and sexually,
every day, without the help of an evil
spiritual agent.
For some reason, many law
enforcement organizations latch on to
satanic conspiracy theories, even if there
is no physical evidence to accompany the
claims. Perhaps it is comforting to blame
crimes on the devil; an ultimate evil that
is easy to categorize. But one's belief in
the devil should not affect the standard
procedures of a criminal investigation.
By continuing to seek a spiritual
explanation for a social problem, we
only avoid dealing with it.
Paul Ingram's case is a textbook
example of satanic hysteria at work. The
Thurston County Sheriff's Department is
at fault for letting the Ingram
investigation move from a criminal case
to a witch trial, blurring the lines
between church and state.
Paul's pastor, John Bratun, was
allowed to counsel all of the members of
the Ingram family and to interrogate
Paul. Bratun admits that he provided
details of Paul's confessions to his
children and vice versa, and told Paul to
imagine events that he couldn't
remember. Bratun called his style of
interviewing the "crossover technique." It
is more commonly called witness
contamination.
Neil McClanahan, who headed the
Ingram investigation, went on record with
journalist Ethan Walters with his belief
that normal law enforcement practices do
AFTER
By handling the Ingram case in such
an unprofessional manner, the Sheriff's
Department has destroyed any chance
there was to determine what really
happened to the Ingram children. Perhaps
there was a real incident of abuse in the
Ingram family. If so it has become
inextricably muddled with seemingly
coerced claims of satanism. In fact, there
are significant parallels to draw between
the Ingram case and the infamous
McMartin Preschool Trial.
The McMartin hysteria began in the
early 1980's, when a mother claimed that
her child was molested while attending
McMartin Preschool in California. Local
police issued a controversial letter, telling
parents of McMartin students that their
children had probably been abused.
The charges quickly escalated. Soon
children were telling stories of animal
and human sacrifice and of a satanic cult
operating in tunnels underneath the
school.
Despite the lurid stories, however,
authorities could never find any physical
evidence. There were no bodies, no ritual
implements, and no tunnels were ever
found, although the entire floor of the
school was excavated.
When the case went to trial, the
social workers who interviewed the
McMartin children were thoroughly
chastised for using leading methods of
questioning and for offering rewards to
children in exchange for stories. The
defendants were found to be innocent.
The McMartin trial was the most
expensive in California's history. But the
real tragedy is the way the children's
stories were handled. Police allowed the
first claim of abuse, which did not
contain any satanic elements, to escalate
into a full scale panic. We will never
know what, if anything, really happened
to that child.
From observing the manner in which
the Thurston County Sheriffs Department
conducted its interrogations, it seems that
they were taking lessons from the
McMartin investigators.
And yet the investigation continues. In
fact, one could say that the Thurston
County Sheriffs Department was the
winner of round one.
Hundreds of thousands of dollars have
been spent on the Ingram case to this
point. Neil McClanahan and the rest of
the Ingram investigators are considered
cult experts. They are heroes to many;
the only people to ever capture a satanic
abuser.
Meanwhile, Paul Ingram bides his time
in a prison in New England and the lives
of Jim Rabie and Ray Risch are
destroyed beyond repair.
But the lawsuits have begun.
Gary Edwards, Neil McClanahan, Brian
Shoening, Dr. Richard Peterson, Joe
Vukich and the rest of Thurston County's
resident "cult experts" will be on trial
themselves come Sept. 8, 1992, when
they answer to the suit filed by Jim
Rabie.
Depositions are being gathered at this
moment.
John
Bratun,
exorcist
extraordinaire and ex-pastor at the Church
of Living Waters was interviewed as he
was preparing to leave town. Dr. Richard
Ofshe visited Olympia the first week of
November for his interview.
Paul Ingram, meanwhile, has filed a
very strong appeal. A lawsuit from him
will likely follow.
Get ready for round two.

Amnesty
International
by Jeff Crane
In March of this year Amnesty
International started the Women's Rights
campaign. This campaign was designed
to
counter
commonly
held
misconceptions of men being the primary
victims of human rights abuses due to
political activity. Women serve on the
forefront of social movements and
political change throughout the world.
As women, they are battling not only the
oppressiveness
of
a
particular
government, but also the roles women
have been forced to accept throughout
the world and in various cultures.
Sex-specific torture such as rape is
not
considered
rape
by
many
governments and until recently was not
by our own government. But it is
commonly used as a form of torture.
Guatemala, El Salvador and Syria are
just three of many countries of which the
government uses rape against women
activists and the wives and girlfriends of
male activists. There was and still is a
lack of recognition on the part of
government officials and the populace in
general of the brutal nature of rape as
torture and its use as a form of
oppression.
A commonly known case in
Amnesty circles is that in which a
federal judge refused a Guatemalan
woman refugee status. She had told the
story of her being raped by a
government soldier participating in a
counter-insurgency
sweep
against
guerrillas. The judge's response was that
the soldier was acting merely on his own
sexual interest and she was not the
victim of government persecution. He
denied her asylum.
Fortunately,
Amnesty International, through a storm
of letters, was able to intervene and she
was granted refugee status and allowed
to stay in this country.
With the campaign coming to a
close, the campus Amnesty International
group has decided to tighten the focus on
the issue of women's rights and in line
with that will be offering some
presentations in the winter dealing with
this issue. The group has also set the
goal of writing 500 letters by March
responding to human rights abuse cases
dealing with women.
Monday, December 10 is Human
Rights Day and the campus Amnesty
group with the Olympia group will
sponsor a potlatch/letter writing party. It
will be in room Cab 110 at 7 pm. This
is a wonderful opportunity to stop by and
ask any questions you may have and
write some letters.
Jeff Crane writes a regular column
for the CPJ. He was missed at deadline
this week, but we still love him. Next
quarter he will be co-authoring the
Amnesty International column with
Giselle Weyte.
'Tact head" history
In this week's column, I have
deigned to enlighten you, the reader,
with the secret history of Brain Boy.
But first, let me assuage The Grinch
and The Lorax. They wrote me asking
about Dr. Seuss' real name and the date
of his death. He was Theodore Geisel,
and died on Sept. 20, 1991. This
quarter's student concert on Dec 6-7 will
be a tribute to him. I recommend it
highly.
Sadly enough, several celebrities
have died this during this quarter. To
my knowledge they were: Dr. Seuss,
Gene Roddenberry, Redd Foxx, Miles
Davis, Fred MacMurray, and Freddy
Mercury.
Now, as to the origins of my being.
Once I was a normal lad, playing
kickball and tag on the mean streets of
New Jersey. But then, gradually, it
became apparent that I wasn't like the
other children. It was around my
thirteenth year when I had the earthshattering realization that / was unable to
forget anything!
Shopping lists,
television credits or phone numbers-all
were retained with no expenditure of
effort. At first I tried to forget, but as
the months wore on I came to embrace
my memories, treasuring them all.
I gathered more and more facts. I
read encyclopedias in one sitting with
my breakfast. I watched hundreds of
hours of Batman and What's Happenin'?
reruns. Local neurologists were baffled
by my ability to generate new neurons
and were equally stymied at the elastic
nature of my cranium. Tag names were
bandied about: "Fact Head," "Smarty,"
or "Sex Engine" (I'm unsure of this
source). But I knew the truth, I knew my
mission, and I knew my name.
I was Brain Boy.
The rest is documented in the pages
of this newspaper. Edward Martin III
drew the portrait of me which graces this
column each week (thank you, Edward,
oh god of cartooning). With your support
and wealth of enquiry, I subsist. In all
likelihood I will return in 1992 (and get
around to answering some '91 questions).
Thank you.
Brain Boy is the brainchild (ouch) of
Mike Mooney. He doesn't quite look like
that, but Mike doesn't really know how
he looks. He's working on it.

Scarfies ponder New Zealand dating scene
by Claire Littlewood
Compared to young people in the
States, kiwi's date a lot less for a
number of reasons. The first being that
the age people get married in New
Zealand seems to be younger than in the
States.
Ben Caradoc-Davies, a
University of Otago student, speculates,
"The average age of people getting
married here is around 18 years, and it's
mainly because our economy is so bad,
but it is improving."
James Hagen, an accounting student
at the University of Otago says another
reason is there are not very many places
to go out. "Aside from the pubs and
movie theatres there really aren't many
places to take girls out to. Restaurants
are quite dear (expensive)." Hagen says
he prefers to go out to the pubs with a
group of people. "It's heaps more fun to
be out with my mates. I get all nervous
when I'm alone with someone, and there
are always expectations. Y'know what I
mean?"
Erika Petersen, a University of
Otago Law Student, had lots to say on
the subject of dating in New Zealand,
"You have to be careful when talking to
guys here, 'cause the next thing you
know they'll be naming your children.
It's really awful. I mean there was this
guy called Chad and I thought he was
really yummy, and anyway I asked him
to the Law Ball, y'know I'm a nineties
woman. But these guys here, they all
have egos. I mean, if you say 'no', they
either think you're playing hard to get,
or they're utterly offended that you've
attacked their male ego, and they'll
probably never speak to you again.
Anyway, this Chad fellow started calling
up every five minutes. I'd walk through
the door and hear the phone ringing. It
was terrible. I mean he had plans for our
house drawn up. I wanted to tell him,
'let's take it slow, maybe start by going
in reverse.' But it didn't work. He was
crushed. He thought I was the meanest
person on this earth. And he hasn't
talked to me since. He avoids me all
the time and tells all his friends that I'm
really mean. No. There's no such thing
as dating here."
mw^jfii^^
\]
Tom
Caradoc-Davies,
younger
brother of Ben Caradoc-Davies, thinks
there is dating in New Zealand, although
he thinks that too much is expected from
peers. "Everyone thinks if you take a
person out just once, all of a sudden
you're hitched." Caradoc-Davies agrees
with Hagen that there aren't many places
to take a date. "Yea, there aren't many
restaurants, and scarfies (students) can't
afford them." Caradoc-Davies said he'd
much rather go out with a group of
friends.
Petersen, who is twenty years old,
says a lot of her friends are already
married or living together. "Yea, one of
my girlfriends up in Auckland has been
living with some guy for two years now,
and they only met playing volleyball.
She's always asking me when I'm going
to get serious about some fellow, and I
tell her when I'm a rich lawyer and
living in New York."
Petersen sides with Ben CaradocDavies on the theory that people get
married younger in New Zealand for
economic reasons, "Definitely, they get
more money from the government if
they're married." Petersen went on to
say, "I think it's also because most New
Zealanders are farmers, and they like to
keep the farms in the families. So some
fellow will be handed part of the farm
from his dad, then all he needs to find is
a wife."

All Blacks - Take the World Series
winners, combine them with the
Superbowl champs, add the prestige of a

less polite "bum" or "arse"
balaclava - a ski mask that covers all of
the face and head except for the eyes
barracks week - a week of voluntary

else.
So if you're looking for a
toilet...ask for that, or a loo, or a dunny.

In other words, a liquor store
box of fluffy ducks - "I am a box of

brew - a glass of beer
brolly - an umbrella

buggered - exhausted, worn out, beat
bugger off - go away
buggering around - wasting time
bum - what you sit on
bush - forest or jungle

sheep...important sheep terminology
cuppa - a cup of tea or coffee..."Have a
cuppa"...friendly Kiwi greeting and
invitation.

D:
dag - Literally this refers to a clot of
fecal matter sticking to the tail end of a
sheep. It has, however, become part of
the language as in, "What a dag!"~an
admiring statement directed at someone
who had done something risque.

rather funny jokes about them. Here are
a few:
Q: What's the main geographical
problem with Australia?
A: It's above sea level.
Q: What do you call 10,000 Australians
under water?
A: A good start.
Q: Why do seagulls fly upside-down
over Australia?
A: It's not worth crapping on.
Q: Why wasn't Jesus born in Australia?
A: They couldn't find three wise men or
a virgin.

Figuring grains of wheat on a chess board

of wheat are necessary to place one grain
of wheat on the first square of a chess
board, two on the second square, four on
the next one and so on until the last
square of the board is covered? Try to
justify the formula you use in your
solution with a proof without words.in
the Pythagorean way.
The number of grains that we need
are: 1 + 2 + 4 + ... + ?
Since there are 64 squares in a chess
board and there is supposed to be 1 (=2°)
grain in square number 1, 2 (=2!) grains
in square 2, 4 (=22) grains in square 3,
and so on, there must be 263 grains in
square 64. Therefore, the number of
grains we need is
1 + 2 + 22 + ... + 2« .
The reader may know the formula
for the sum of the geometric sequence
which we need to find the answer to our
problem:
1 + 2 + 22 + ... + 263 = 2 6 4 . i .
But even if we remember the formula
Imagine now that all these dots
drop to a lower level.
THE
1 + 2 + 22 + ... + 2" = 2«+l - 1
we may not remember how to prove it
and might also have doubts about its
correctness. Here is one pictorial way
in which we might convince ourselves
that indeed the formula is correct.
Imagine the numbers 1, 2, 4, ... , 2"
represented by dots, with the first one on
top, the next two one level below, the
next four one level below, all the way to
the 2" dots in a last level, forming a
kind of an upside-down tree (the 1 on
top is the root)
This last level of dots are, of course, all
the 1 + 2 + 22 + ... + 2" dots. How
many are there? We could visualize
them as what the next level of our tree
would have been, that is 2" +1 . Well,
almost. There is one dot missing.
1
1
So we do have 2 n + 1 - 1 dots, as
claimed by the previous formula.
By the way. Is it really true that
king Shirham could not satisfy Sissa's
request to fill a chess board this way?
2« . 1 =
18, 446, 744, 073, 709, 551, 615
which is approximately 18 quintillions
or better yet about 2 x 1019 grains.
Today's world production of wheat is
about 500 million metric tons, that is
500, 000, 000 tons = 5 x 10« tons =
5 x 1014 g rams (i ton is 1,000,000
grams). One gram of wheat has about
60 grains and therefore the world
production of wheat is about 300 x 1014
grains or 3 x 1016 grains. So, we
would have to use the entire world
production of wheat (at today's levels of
production) during
2 x 1019 a 1Q4
3 x 10!6
years, that is about during 10 thousand
years, to satisfy Sissa's request. It is
clear that Sissa knew his mathematics.

World AIDS Day remembers the victims
by Tod Streater
The following is a speech I gave at
the Capitol Rotunda on December 1,
World AIDS Day. I was contacted by
The Olympia AIDS Task Force because
it was felt that World AIDS Day, in
addition to being a day of mourning,
needed something to spark a political
feeling in the audience.
For those of you who don't know, I
have been HIV positive since August of
1988 and I have been fighting for the
right to live and die as I choose ever
since. I have watched several of the most
influential people in my life die the
slow, painful and helpless death of
AIDS; I have watched the government
ignore my Mends in their time of need;
and I have watched, as this school has
done so little in the battle against AIDS
in students.
I can't just sit around and let my
friends and fellow students get this
horrible disease while they remain
comfortable in their ignorance. My goal
is to raise awareness of all the issues
surrounding AIDS including gender bias,
racism, class issues and of course
homophobia. During Winter Quarter, look
for many more articles in the CPJ.
They will be current, accusatory, and
very informative.
Hello, my name is Tod and I want
to thank everyone for being here,
especially those who do volunteer work.
Volunteers help to extend the lives, and
the comfort of lives, all around the
world. I usually speak my piece through
film or video but as today, December
first, is a day without art, I am simply
speaking.
The reason we have a day without
art is co commemorate those we have
lost to the AIDS pandemic, so remember
those who have died and help others
remember by covering a piece of art
with black cloth.
There are two major emotions that
this AIDS pandemic creates in me:
I'm sad because there was so much
more to be learned from Guy, and he
was taken away by two diseases that we
don't need to have, bigotry and AIDS.
I'm mad because my long range life
plans have been savagely curtailed.
I'm sad because Michael Cherios is
dead.
I'm mad because this world tells me
in subtle ways that because I'm gay I
don't deserve to be happy.
I'm sad because my good friend
Upchuck is dead.
I'm mad because still in this day and
age there are people who won't shake my
hand because I'm HIV positive.
I'm sad because James is dead.
I'm mad because the fear of queers
by the government has caused 200,000
deaths in this country.
I'm sad because Giro is dead.
I'm mad because two-thirds of the
teenage suicides in this country are
attributed to a fear of being queer.
I'm sad because Bill is dead.
I'm mad because my father has
known that I'm HIV positive for four
years and he can't deal with it until
Magic Johnson tells the world that he is
HIV positive.
I'm sad because Todd is dead.
I'm mad because I have to sleep 12
hours just to have enough energy to work
4 hours.
I'm sad because Chris is dead.
I'm mad because a scared woman in
Florida is able to prey on the fears of
our Congress to make them try to
legislate health care professionals out of
a job.
I'm sad because Alex is dead.
I'm made because we don't have a
health care system for everyone in this
country.
I'm sad because Steve is dead.
I'm mad because women die five
times faster than men from AIDS.
I'm sad because Jessica is dead.
I'm mad because there are one
million people infected with HIV and
they don't even know it.
I'm sad because Frank is dead.
I'm mad because teens are the fastest
growing group being infected with HIV
and still parents are afraid to have
condoms at school.
I'm sad because Sam died at the age
of 21.
I'm mad because when I tell some
people that I'm HIV positive they say,
"What's that?"
I'm sad because Jon is dead.
I'm mad because when I tell people
that they are bigoted because they tell
gay jokes or AIDS jokes, they don't
understand what I mean.
I'm sad because Mark is dead.
I'm mad because in 1977 someone
died of what was to be called AIDS, and
in 1991 we still don't have a cure.
I'm sad because Jim is dead.
I'm mad because the government will
pay for my allopathic physician but
refuses to recognize my naturopathic
physician in the same way.
I'm sad because Justine is dead.
I'm mad because the established
medical treatment I was undergoing made
me sicker than I have ever been before
or since.
I'm sad because Tommy is dead.
I'm mad because being gay now means
I have to constantly fight for my life.
I'm sad because Monty is dead.
I'm mad because my lover and I are
making plans for our old age and the
chances are I won't be there.
I'm sad because Winn is dead.
I'm mad because my ex-lover once told
me that he is afraid to touch me.
I'm sad because Freddy Mercury is
dead.
I'm mad because I can't get insurance
or monetary backing for my film projects
because they're afraid I'll die during
production.
I'm sad because Robert is dead.
I'm mad because is takes 14 years for
the medical profession to recognize that
women with AIDS have different
symptoms than men.
I'm sad because Melissa is dead.
I'm mad because drug users and queers
are considered expendable.
I'm sad because Kaspar is dead.
I'm mad because people come up to
me on the street to tell me they are sorry
and then think they've done their part in
the fight against AIDS.
I'm sad because Hans is dead.
I'm mad because I am thought of as
too controversial to teach youths at high
risk for HIV infection how to protect
themselves.
I'm sad because Taiye is dead.
I'm mad because people come up to
me to talk about AIDS and they don't
know where else to go for help. There
should
be
unbiased
information
everywhere.
ALL WAYS TRAVEL SERVICE, INC.
I'm sad because David is dead.
I'm mad because every person in this
world should be told the specifics about
safer sex and there are groups whose sole
purpose is to prevent that.
I'm sad because Ferdoz is dead.
I'm mad because nobody thinks that
AIDS will happen to them and they go
around murdering indiscriminately.
I'm sad because Jonathan is dead.
I'm mad because all it takes is a
little education to prevent wholesale
slaughter of our people and we still can't
find the funding for it.
I'm sad because Randy is dead.
I'm mad because my college teaches
only 500 out of 3600 students about
safer sex and considers that a good
statistic.
I'm sad because Lady Gray is dead.
I'm mad because HIV infection is a
radically different experience for a
wealthy white, childless man than for a
low-income Latina mother.
I'm sad because Scotty is dead.
I'm mad because treatments for HIV
that are not profitable are ignored.
I'm sad because Paul is dead.
I'm mad because the government
considers war tools more important than
an AIDS vaccine.
I'm sad because Harry is dead.
I'm mad because 70% of all teens
are sexually active, without the proper
sexual education.
I'm sad because yet another Jon is
dead.
I'm mad because big churches tell
the world that people that people with
AIDS deserve it.
I'm sad because Nathan is dead.
I'm mad because a women may not
insist on condoms if she fears that the
man may beat her up~or leave her.

Creep slowly to Seattle the cheap way
by Byron Cook
If you're trying to get to Seattle, but
you can't find a ride on the ride board,
there's a better way than taking
Greyhound that a lot of people don't
know about. It's kind of complex and
extremely annoying, but $3.50 is really
cheap.
Where the bus stops are:
Olympia: On Fourth Avenue at
Columbia, in front of the Sweet Oasis
Mediterranean Bakery (diagonally across
from InterCity Transit's Columbia Street
Bus Station)
Lakewood Park and Ride: On 1-5
somewhere before Tacoma
Tacoma: llth and Market. When
you transfer to the north-bound Seattle
bus, you have to cross to the other side
of the street; but both south-bounds are
on the same side.
Seattle: The bus to Seattle goes up
Fourth Avenue, and crosses from
Jefferson to Olive, and the streets
between. The bus leaving Seattle goes
down Second Avenue; you should board
at Pike, Union, Spring, Cherry or South
Washington.
To Seattle from Olympia:
At 7 am get on the 601X to
Tacoma, which arrives at 7:56 am. Then
board the 590X at 8 am to Seattle.
At 4:08 pm, get on the 601X to the
Lakewood Park and Ride, which arrives
at 4:51 pm. Then board the 592X to
Seattle at 4:55 pm.
At 4:37 pm, get on the 601X to the
Lakewood Park and Ride, which arrives
at 5:20 pm. Then board the 592X to
Seattle at 5:25 pm.
To Olympia from Seattle (on Second and
Pike)
At 5:41 am, get on the 592X to the
Lakewood Park and Ride, which arrives
at 6:45 am. Then board the 601X to
Olympia at 7 am.
At 6:43 am, get on the 593X to
Tacoma, which arrives at 7:43. Then
board the 60IX to Olympia at 7:45 am.
At 3:22 pm, get on the 590X to
Tacoma, which arrives at 4:43. Then
board the 601X to Olympia at 4:45 pm.
Traffic really screws things up
sometimes, and could leave you with a
lengthy lay-over.
From Seattle, at 4:07 pm and 5:12
pm, there are a couple buses, but the
connections from Tacoma only take you
to the mall (South Sound Center) on the
other side of Olympia. I think there is a
bus from there to downtown.
Byron Cook ran into the CPJ office
with this article, and then ran away. If
you're still confused, and have more time
than money, you can get more obtuse
information from Pierce Transit, 1-800562-8109.
Response
Responding to
Sgt. Savage
A few weeks ago I wrote a letter of
outrage about an unfortunate experience
with campus security. As most of you
know, Sergeant Savage responded to my
letter in a less than helpful way. I have
written him a letter in return and wanted
to share it because I was very
embarrassed by the personal attack he
provided. I am also afraid that because
of the sergeant's reference to misuse of
security services, other students might
now be afraid to call for "help" in cases
where they are clearly able.
Dear Sergeant Larry Savage,
After reading your response to my
CPJ letter, I wanted to write you
personally. First of all, in reference to
the public services you mentioned, I'd
just like to say that I wonder how many
of those other 2,000 assistances were
performed as negligently as the one I
wrote of. I know not everyone sits down
to write such an emotional letter as
mine, but I can assure you it has
happened to others.
I also think that any time you are
forced to jumpstart a car it should be
considered an emergency. I don't
presume you agree with me but the point
is, your officer did not know we were
talcing the car to a mechanic, and should
have treated our situation with as much
precedence as any other.
As for the issue of security help
being called in only an emergency case,
I refer to the description of Campus
Security in The Evergreen Student
Handbook 1991-1992: "A call to Campus
Security at any time of day or night
might lighten your load. The staff can
help you into a locked car and juice up

your battery," (p. 10). The description
goes on but there is never any mention
of using security's "help" in only
incidents of dire need. The 1991-1992
Evergreen catalog goes on to say:
"Campus Security is open 24 hours a
day, seven days a week and is staffed by
officers trained in law enforcement and
problem resolution skills," (p. 106).
I found your officers lack of training
far less than "personally satisfying," as
you suggested and did not feel his
"assistance" worthy of appreciation. I did
not write my letter simply to dump on
campus security. My hope was that I
was pointing out a problem of ill-trained
officers that I personally do not trust and
do not think should be armed. I'm afraid
my letter has not accomplished that goal,
but merely sparked you into a fit of
name calling.
Lastly, I would like to leave you with
some food for thought. Just how
"euphoric" do you think it is for students
here to be hundreds of miles from home
and not feel safe? After all isn't that
what your job really is and aren't we the
ones who pay your salary?

Take time to
learn to spell
I realize that the American school
system is inadequate in a lot of respects
and a lot of people get by without
necessary communication skills, but why
don't the large numbers of people who
cannot spell well take the time to learn?
I continually read various handwritten or
typed posted flyers on the walls and
halls of this campus which contain
spelling mistakes. These mistakes are
easily correctable. It seems to me that if
someone is willing to take the time to
design and distribute a bulletin then that

about how the message will be received.
Unfortunately, I cannot take the bulletin's

obvious mistakes. Correcting spelling
mistakes involves a very simple process:
picking up a dictionary and using it. If
the most striking feature of a message is
the inability of the person who wrote the

valuable, fundamental tool of it is

Bike lockers
reconsidered
For the last two and a half years
I've written a bicycling column for the
Olympian, providing a
bicyclist's
perspective on a variety of issues. My
latest column, concerning the purchase of
bicycle storage lockers at South Puget
Sound Community College, is the first to
be censored, apparently because it
contradicts the paper's view on the
subject.
It's unfortunate that the paper failed
to obtain a user's perspective on the
difference between bicycle racks and
covered, theft-proof bicycle lockers. In
stories on Nov. 19 and 21, and an
editorial on Nov. 24, the paper
continually referred to the lockers as
"racks." Bicycle racks and lockers are
entirely different animals: racks are
$«»r-1^^
acceptable for short-term, fair weather
use but lockers are required for secure
storage.
The Nov. 24 editorial recommended
buying cheap bicycle racks rather than
bicycle lockers, calling the purchase
"outrageous." Yet bicycle lockers cost
approximately 1/10 the average cost of
providing urban automobile parking,
based on state surveys. Obviously, a
bicyclist's perspective is lacking.
It's especially unfair to pick on
bicycle facilities for students, many of
whom have few other transportation
options or money to spend on replacing
a damaged or stolen bicycle.
Our community has goals to
encourage non-automotive transportation.
The Olympian, in a SepL 3, 1991
editorial entitled "WE ALL MUST BE
WILLING TO FORGO AUTOS" stated,
"All of us are going to have to change
our driving habits. Businesses and
governments are going to have to be
creative in their thinking. Every option-from subsidized transit passes to
allowing some employees to work at
home-must be considered." More
recently the paper ran an investigation to
determine whether public officials are
using efficient travel modes.
Lockers and other specialty facilities
for bicyclists are essential for meeting
these goals. Our community must be
committed to providing the tools that
bicyclists need. It's unfortunate that both
sides of this issue are not fully aired.

Romanovsky and Phillips mix Cher, sodomy
by Andrew Hamlin
Ron Romanovsky, from Pittsburgh, met
Paul Phillips, from New Jersey and
elsewhere, in San Francisco's Golden
Gate Park quite a few years ago, and
they've been singing sweetly ever since.
They bring their peculiar brand of
political folk singing to Evergreen this
Sunday evening at 7 pm in the Library
Lobby, their Olympia debut. Paul quickly
says "I hope people won't get the
impression that we're dry, dull, and
boring"--not likely when one-half of the
act (Paul) is sometimes found in CherBarbara Bush drag" and selections include
"Don't Use Your Penis For A Brain" and
"The Sodomy Song," which is marked
"don't play" on KAOS's copy of
Emotional Roller Coaster due to FCC
boneheadism. When I called the duo at a
friend's house in San Francisco, they were
watching Larry King. "He's got two
people from Queer Nation on and
somebody from Crackerbarrel la southern
restaurant chain accused of discriminating
against gays]," Ron said excitedly, but
they broke away from the TV to say a few
words.
Ron: The Roches made me fall in love
with vocal harmonies, the trio singing.
We probably would have been a trio if
we'd found a third person willing to work
as hard as we were.
ON AIDS
Ron: On our first tour in '83 a lot of our
concerts were AIDS benefits. I think
we've been privileged, if that's the right
word, to watch AIDS awareness as it
moved from the big cities into the smaller
communities. We travel so much, we get
to see that. I can remember when it
wasn't in the papers or whatever, it
hadn't hit them. When they thought they
were safe as long as they didn't sleep
with someone who'd been to San
Francisco or New York. In the early days
in the big cities, there was a lot of fear,
despair, hopelessness almost. At this point
I think we're into a whole new phase, it's
been with us over ten years, and it's
become an accepted part of lie.
Fortunately and unfortunately both. It's
sad, but you don't have to have total fear
and total hopelessness.
Paul: Now with Magic Johnson, the thing
is coming home-real people get it, and
real people can cope with it. Most of the
people I know who are HIV positive
think of it as being no different than
diabetes. It's controllable. A lot of the
hopelessness
is
from
internalized
homophobia-we are told from the start
that we are bad. I say this over and over:
I am so proud of any gay person who
lives until 40, because the amount of shit
they have to take is enormous. I don't
know any other minority that gets put
through what we get, in this day and age
anyway.
ON THE ROAD
Ron: We're tired but we're keeping up.
We were on a gay cruise ship down
around Palm Beach for a week.
How was that?
Paul: Not so good. I got seasick, for one
thing, when we were crossing the open
ocean and I was high on Dramamine.
Ron: And most of the other acts, I won't
mention any names, didn't have much
thought behind them. We actually got
disinvited to a cocktail party because of
some anti-George Bush remarks we made.
Doesn't sound like a party we'd want to
be at in the first place.
LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT?
Paul: Our eyes met, we smiled at each Paul (left) and Ron: Success is a serious
other. I kept walking, I thought it was
just too happy to work out or anything respected me enough. And I got away
like that I went to the bus stop and Ron
with murder. I got straight A's, but was

block~our eyes were locked on each
other. I got off the bus at the next stop.
"HOW DID YOU START OUT PERFORMING
He came up and said, "It's only a block, INDIVIDUALLY?"
you could have walked."
GROWING UP GAY
It says here that Ron's high school
classmates "figured out he was gay long
before he did." How true is that?
Ron: I certainly had an early sense that
I was different I knew that I was
attracted to men at an early age, but I
didn't think that was an option, because I
never heard the word gay.
Paul: It doesn't say that for me, but I bet
a lot of people go through that.
Ron: I didn't get much support from my
school~the counselor would say I should
carry my books by my side instead of
over my chest. No one ever validated that
these people [at the school] were crazy.
I ended up in a mental hospital when I
was 14 because I couldn't deal with it.
My mother-my father had died-just
really didn't know what to do.
Paul: My father's dead now, but I think
he was at peace with the fact that I was
gay. If my mother had her choice I
wouldn't be gay, but I think that's less
her moral feeling and more that she's
afraid for my health and for the mental
anguish I have to go through. My mother
was a teacher at my high school, and she
was loved by the students, so even if they
thought I was a sissy and a queer, they
Ron: My first time was in a high school
talent show which was a pretty awful
experience. I started out in bars and
coffeehouses in San Francisco and was
very afraid, and it wasn't until I saw
another gay man, who was "out" on
stage, that I realized part of my stage
fright was a fear of being found out as
gay. With Paul I discovered I could make
people laugh, and I feel when you do that
you have some control over what's going
on. An audience's applause alone doesn't
tell me enough.
Paul: I came out of my mother's womb
in performance mode. I was an Rh
negative baby and had to have a
transfusion, my thumb and my big toe
were swollen. Then I went home and my
mother had to stay in the hospital another
two weeks, because I was a very big
baby--9 pounds 11 ounces out of a 5 foot
2, 110-pound woman, [to Ron] Ron, do
you feel like you're a natural on stage,
like a fish takes to water?
Ron: Yeah, not that I always do well, but
it's what I like to do most.
Paul: See, for you it's been learning how
to let go on stage, learning to trust
yourself...
Ron: I always wanted that sort of
attention, but I'd had so much negative
attention it was terrifying. It's been hard

me back to his house for coffee. He had
this two-room cottage that was yellow
with red trim, with a rainbow painted on
the wall inside, and the first thing I saw
was the Roches [a vocal trio of sisters]
album at the front of his stack of records!
I went to see the Roches at their very
first New York concert, at Folk City, and
I've always loved them.

Rock critic Kurt drones on and on and on and
by Andrew Hamlin
BAT CHAIN PULLER: ROCK AND ROLL IN THE
AGE OF CELEBRITY
BY KURT LODER
NEW YORK: ST. MARTIN'S PRESS, 377 PP.,
$19.95
Them's that gave Robert Gulp in the
"Demon With A Glass Hand" episode of
The Outer Limits "movement, but not life"
also gave Kurt Loder competency, but not
brilliance. Bat Chain Puller resounds with
facts, well-placed quotes, and tight
organization. That may be its problem.
In his earnestness to be earnest, Loder
eschews the limb for the trunk of the
tree; his book has none of Lester Bangs'
incidiary outrage and outrageousness, none
of Dave Marsh's pigheaded proselytizing
for soul music as God's manifestation of
Itself on Earth, none of Robert
Christgau's mind-numbingly stupid foursecond
dismissals
of
forty-minute
recordings. Precise and sensible, Loder's
prose is a hollow vessel gaping folorn for
some irrational passion. And as Christgau
once said of Paul Simon's early work,
"Each song is perfect. And says nothing."
With that caveat, I still recommend
this book as, if nothing else, an
engrossing review of the nineteen-eighties
from musical, cultural, and sometimes
political standpoints. MTV, for whom
Loder now works, heaved itself up on
August 1, 1980, forever altering the way
music, culture, and politics did business.
In his introduction the author wonders
what relevance rock can have when "the
rock secen and the art scene even the
literary scene [become] cheap feeding
grounds for a new and voracious celebrity
industry...Rock stars were no longer
looked upon as cultural prophets or youth
spokesmen or any of those other tired

Although he doesn't take the

We must continue to fight AIDS,
especially now that it is in the news so
much. Here is our chance to work with
what the world has given us. A famous
heterosexual basketball player has the
courage to stand up and try to change the
way we look at AIDS. We must grab all
the newspaper and TV and Radio
coverage while we can.
Our society has never been more
ready to take on this cause, be we have
to encourage ourselves
constantly.
Everyday we have to turn to someone
and ask, "What have you done in the
fight against bigotry and ignorance?"
"Did you read that article about AIDS in
the paper today?" "Did you read that
article about health care in that
magazine?"
Think of all the people that can't be
here today because they're dead, our
friends and family that once we could
hug and hold and now all we can do is
open a box of that person's belongings,
and try to remember by the scent what
they were like. We can all find the

I'm mad because I'm perceived as a

I'm mad because Milwaukee police,
when faced with a young man who was
badly beaten and bleeding from his butt,
call it homosexual love and send him

I'm sad because Lewis is dead.
I'm mad because Dr. McCoy can
make a vaccine that actually makes the
lesions go away before your eyes and
I'm left with AZT.
I'm sad because Dr. Ben is dead.
I'm mad because we have to vote on
a right-to-die initiative before we have
equal health care for everybody.
I'm mad because some people think
that coming to a few speeches at the
Capitol building is enough to stop the
spread of this horrible disease.
Every day I'm sad because my best
friend Guy is dead.

For a Who profile, done for the
band's deceptive "farewell" tour in 1982,
the author writes, "[the band] have signed
a lucrative sponsorship deal with Schlitz
beer... [and] will receive a pot of money.
Every little bit helps." What? One of
rock's greatest acts takes the money and
runs? Even if "compensation becomes
essential—when ninety people are eating
and sleeping off a band's profits," I'd like
to see just a little bit more than blithe
recitation of facts. Someone might get the
very wrong impression that things were
always like this, or that there's nothing
wrong with things continuing like this.
The profile of Deborah Harry and
Chris Stein, ex-doyens of Blondie, shows
us love surviving loss of money, loss of
fame, and the spectre of death through
dehabilitating illness. Rolling Stone
rejected that last one, by the way,
partially because "Rockbird, the Deborah
Harry album that occasioned its
assignment, expired pretty much upon
release." It reads much better than some
of the other entries, where Loder ends up
trying to make and Never Say Never

had more photogenic celebrities to cover

Sniff or Sludge or whoever have a fine album
The chase makes this band all the
more fun, and their first album, Tweez,
which is only out on vinyl, is worth
checking out. It has some good songs on
it, and is comparable to Spiderland as
say, Bleach is to Nevermind. Tweez's
credits
are also rather amusing:
"engineered by some fuckin' derd niffer".
So, Slint is hopefully now less of a
mystery band and these four lookers with
good music will finally get some of the
recognition they deserve. Spiderland is an
excellent album and the only bad words
I have to say about this album have to do
with the picture of the spider on the back
jacket.
Leilani Johnson wants to know what a
"derd niffer" is.

SLINT
"SPIDERLAND" (CD)
TOUCH AND Go RECORDS
A completely obscure band (once
when I mentioned the name I got asked
if that movie was any good), Slint
intersperses descriptive lyrics with some
of the most agonized guitar riffs and
moody drumming this side of Zeppelin.
Slint pioneers a new sound on Spiderland,
music that can best be described as slow,
hypnotic, easy-listening grunge (if the
latter can be a term),,
Like the true meaning of the number
23, Slint is rather exclusively known. The
one-word
name brings either an
enlightened ahh!, or blank, clueless stares,
followed by, "What was that...Sludge?
Sniff?" For those who know of the band
however, life is a much richer experience.
The voice of Brian McMahn, changes
dramatically throughout the album, grating
and evil on "Don, A Man," then to
easier-going storyteller on "Washor." He
never sings, not in the true sense of the
word, but the screaming all through
"Good Morning Captain" is the most
primal I've ever had the privilege of
hearing. Additionally, he can plead with
his voice in ways mat send a shiver up
the spine.
McMahn "sings" about personal
torment, neurosis, anguished love, the
realization of mistakes made and how to
find the strength to transcend them. It's
odd stuff, but with the epic narration style
the band uses, they manage to pull it off
in a way no other band previously has.
I listen to Slint and feel like I've
been through a cathartic experience. This
band is incredible; carrying a great deal
of power in David Pajo's guitar and Britt
Watford's drumming. At times McMahn's
voice is covered with the interplay
between the guitars and drumming,
creating an interesting layered effect that
makes you feel like you have to hunt for
the vocals. The lyrics slip free at the right
Browsers' Book Shop
Slint on a leech-gathering mission in Zurich, photo by Will Oldham
moments though, phrases like the
whispered "I'll make it up to you", right
before McMahn belts out an "I miss you"
with a sincerity that leaves the listener
hanging on, waiting for more.
This band is very powerful; at times
very much in the face, other times as
relaxing as a warm, hot bath. Some songs
are very slow and melodic, rhythmic and
lulling, while others will assault your
senses in a way previously unknown.
More often than being one or the other
though, their songs incorporate both
techniques, taking easy, yet powerfully
grinding climaxes, into contrastingly soft
drum and guitar solos. I don't know
where they got the idea from, but it's
impressive.
The band, from Louisville, Kentucky,
is making little underground waves, which
will hopefully swell higher and break
through, so the band can be found with a
bit more ease in record stores. While
Reckless Records in the Haight-Ashbury
district had at least heard of Slint, they
unfortunately didn't have any copies in
stock, and Washington stores seem to be
pretty dry. However, many record store
will special order Slint for you.
