The article is more than half page long. To save my time, instead of
making a summery, I am posting a part of JBH Online news. By the way,
for those who do not subscribe to NYT, and can not find it in a 
library (!), I recommend subscribing to the JBH online mailing list.
For people on BITNET, type: 
IBM/VM: TELL LISTSERV AT IRISHVM SUB ONLINE-L your name
VAX/VMS: SEND LISTSERV@IRISHVM SUB ONLINE-L your name

For non-BITNET people, send email with text:
SUB ONLINE-L your name
to: listserv@irishvm.bitnet

&&&&&&&&&&&&  Welcome to the NYT Listing from JBH Online  &&&&&&&&&&&&

                       Sunday, 19 February 1989


    The following items included in this morning's National Edition of
the New York Times caught my eye:

    >  the San Francisco/Moscow Teleport, a direct computer link
         between the US and USSR (already familiar to recipients of
         several electronic mail discussion lists, including Disarm-L)
         (sec. 1, pp. 1 & 20);

(about 100 lines deleted)

---------------------------------------------------------------------
 
I hope regular netters of comp.misc can help summarize the part about
Usenet debate.
