MODERN NIGHTMARES wo of the year ' s major news events were remarkable for their promise of a world with no future. As NATO deployed new missiles in Europe, the specter was raised yet again of an apocalypse that threatened the destruction of modern civilization. And on Jan. 1, 1984, George Orwell ' s nightmarish tale of the ultimate totalitarian state arrived in title, if not in fact. Orwell ' s satirical novel described a state which invaded and con- trolled every aspect of a person ' s life. With its publication, the question was whether we would reach 1984 by 1984. But even with the examples of decay thrown about the West in 1984 was infinitely more free than in 1984. More threatening was the danger of nuclear war. After the U.S. and the U.S.S.R. fail- ed to reach an agreement reducing the number of Soviet missiles aimed at Western Europe, NATO went ahead with plans to deploy 572 new cruise and Pershing II missiles. In the midst of this, ABC-TV presented The Day After , a movie dramatizing the effects of nuclear war on the town of Lawrence, Kansas. Fortunately, the world wasn ' t paralyzed with a sense of impending apocalypse. After I all, we ' re still here. Brian r Zabcik In 7984, Big Brother was watching.
