Steve Wozniak’s insistence that he priced Apple’s first computer at $666 “because I, as a mathematician, liked repeating digits” is more plausible than Moses Harman’s that his periodical Lucifer the Light-Bearer with its frank discussion of what Robert C.

$1.5 trillion. With a “t.” That’s how much US president Donald Trump wants Congress to appropriate for military (falsely called “defense”) spending in 2027. And that number — there’s no other way to put this — is insane.
