	RINGS.SND   Peewee Herman's phone rings.

     SPEAKING.SND   Peewee answers.

	   HI.SND   The sound of the voice of the type of folks
		    that Peewee Herman now associates with.
		    Sure beats talking with the Conky 2000 computer.

                         Is America entering the
                            V.L.S.I. era ??

    1.  A NOBLE CAUSE
        -------------
	[*]  "....Reeling from the plant closures, war damage, and
	labor strife, HITACHI was saved from Bankruptcy by American
	military contracts during the Korean War."

	My view of this:   Excellent example of America doing a job that
	had to be done.  And, unfortunately, another example of how
	the United Nations doesn't understand the meaning of Carpe Diem.


    2.  AN IGNOBLE CAUSE ?
	-----------------
	[**]        "..... in July 1981 ....
	 ...During high level consultations on security matters,
	 the U.S. government asked Japan to provide advanced
	 very large scale integration (VLSI) technology to enhance
         air and anti-submarine defense capabilities."

	My view of this:   Did we in trying to make ourselves (America)
	stronger actually make ourselves weaker?   Did the U.S. Government
	make the right decision?  Didn't the U.S. government by this very
	action basically state that the U.S. people cannot do the job?
	Is this the American Industrial Policy?

	Can Congress & the President, as a team, remedy this situation?


	           Is America entering the
		      Very.Large.Scale.Investment. era ??
