I had tried not to think about it; I had put it off. But I knew that one day, like an automaton, so I would not feel emotion or panic, I would have to look for the clandestine prison called Puesto Vasco. I would have to enter that tiny cell without a number, close that steel door behind me, put my right eye up to that peephole and look at the cell across the way. I would have to relive that night when another eye looked back at me through the peephole in the opposite cell, an eye I never saw again but have carried with me as an integral part of my body, of my very nature, so that something of the owner of that eye will continue to live, the prisoner who was surely murdered and thrown into a mass grave. A street in a small town, Don Bosco, 10 miles south of Buenos Aires. I see it now for the first time: I was blindfolded when they brought me here, blindfolded when they took me away.

Apple Computer, struggling to avoid a financial crisis, announced one step yesterday that would give it additional breathing room.

The Justice Department said yesterday that the Union Pacific Corporation's proposed $3.9 billion acquisition of the Southern Pacific Rail Corporation raised "significant competitive concerns." The department, in comments filed with the Surface Transportation Board, said the proposed deal would hurt a large number of markets throughout the West, where the number of rail carrier competitors would decline and could result in price increases of roughly $800 million for shippers and consumers. The volume of commerce affected is more than $6 billion. The department said the railways' plan to grant more than 3,800 miles of track rights to the Burlington Northern Santa Fe Corporation "appears to be inadequate to prevent rate increases."
