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.
