WEEKLY REVIEW A papyrologist at Oxford University announced that new techniques in spectral imaging, which make it possible to decipher previously illegible ink on papyrus fragments, have yielded parts of a lost tragedy by Sophocles, a novel by Lucian, and an epic poem by Archilochos; researchers also applied the technique to third- and fourth-century manuscripts of the Revelation of Saint John and discovered that the number of the beast, contrary to popular belief, is 616, the area code of Grand Rapids, Michigan. A Washington woman found a snake with legs, locusts plagued Bangladesh, and Zimbabwe was at risk of famine. More than 100,000 Americans were working at home answering customer-service phone calls. In Iraq, two F/A-18 Hornet jets collided in mid-air, a suicide bomber killed sixty people at a police-recruitment center, and at least forty-seven people were killed in bombings and gun attacks. Fourteen bodies, clad in white robes, were found in shallow graves, and Saddam Hussein's nephew was arrested. President George W. Bush announced the capture of a "major facilitator and chief planner for the Al Qaeda network." The captured man turned out to be a mid-level Al Qaeda operative named Abu Faraj al-Libbi. "He used to make the coffee and do the photocopying," said a former associate. Nevada Senator Harry Reid said Bush was a loser, while Virginia Representative Jim Moran described Bush as someone who does not read books, who surrounds himself with sycophants, and who has his ass kissed by Dick Cheney.
