A takeover by nerds?

Dear Editor:

Two disparate news items
occurred recently, both in-
volving Mr. Doug Collins:
one where in the Zundel

Socred Bennett successfully
sued NDP Stupich for
slander because he did not
put Scotch on his cornflakes.
Columnist Fotheringham
was sued for libel and was

obliged to henceforth use a
blunter hatchet on his type-
writer.

In the past, when hardhat-
