Excerpted from the Redwood City Times:

The huge Shell Oil Co. toxic waste trial scheduled to gear up in San Bruno this
fall has produced reams and reams of paper.  So many, in fact, that the San
Mateo County Clerk's office has partitioned off a room where two clerks do
nothing but sort and file all those stacks of paper.

They've named their space the "Shell Oil Control Center" and posted a sign
outside:  "Life is Shell, and then you die."

Heard on KABC, a survey was taken at some high school on how the students felt
about contraceptives being advertised on television.

66% were in favor of it.
26% were against it.
8%  said that regardless of the commercial, Pres. Reagan should still send aid
to
    them.
