Nairn was on KPFA last night, calling from the police station. He seemed calm and said that he faced no particular danger. Still, he showed incredible courage sneaking in to Indonesia and eluding the militia for so long, while just about everybody else left. Someone with his talent could easily work for the NY Times, reporting from Dili from the Hilton in Djakarta. Three cheers for the few reporters with that sort of integrity and courage. Most have already been blackballed. -- Michael Perelman Economics Department California State University [EMAIL PROTECTED] Chico, CA 95929 530-898-5321 fax 530-898-5901
