Viagra may affect
pilots’ color vision
WASHINGTON — Add anoth
er line to a pilot’s preflight check
list: No Viagra.
The Federal Aviation Adminis
tration is recommending pilots
not take the impotence drug with
in six hours of flying because it
could make it tough to distinguish
between the blues and greens
found in cockpit instrument and
runway lights.
So far the drug doesn’t seem to
be a problem for other transporta
tion workers.
“For the above reasons, ‘Six
hours from Viagra to throttle’ is
recommended,” wrote Dr. Dona
to J. Borrillo, a flight surgeon who
issued the warning in the most re
cent issue of the Federal Air Sur
geon’s Medical Bulletin. Studies
show it takes that long for Viagra
to leave the bloodstream.
The phrase mimics the absti
nence rule for pilots who drink al
cohol: “Eight hours from bottle to
throttle.”
In clinical studies of Viagra, 3
percent of patients reported see
ing a bluish haze. Others taking
higher-than-recommended doses
had trouble telling the difference
between blue and green.
Both conditions are trouble
some for pilots, since blue and
green lights are used to outline
taxiways and illuminate digital
instrument panels.
Glenn may need help
releasing payload
CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla. —
John Glenn may be a 77-year-old
medical marvel to NASA and just
about everybody else on the plan
et, but he still may need help mak
ing all systems go.
He will have Metamucil aboard
when he rockets away from Earth
on Thursday.
The world’s oldest astronaut
has requested Metamucil wafers,
the apple crisp variety, for Discov
ery’s nine-day flight. The next
oldest shuttle crew member, 46
year-old Japanese astronaut
Chiaki Mukai, also put in an order,
for cinnamon spice.
No one else on the crew appar
ently wants, or needs, the 100 per
cent natural fiber wafers, intend
ed to help those suffering from
constipation, troubled bowels or
hemorrhoids.
The wafers were on a NASA-is
sued list of out-of-the-ordinary
foods requested by the astronauts.
“It’s important for all of us to
have to worry about regularity, es
pecially when we’re out in space,”
said Dr. Dave Williams, an astro
naut who is the life sciences direc
tor at Johnson Space Center and
who relied on his normal diet and
exercise when he flew on a med
ical-research shuttle flight in
April.
He said he didn’t know whether
previous astronauts had carried
Metamucil into space.
Naked clown video
odd but not obscene
LINCOLN, Neb. — A public-ac
cess TV program showing a naked
man in clown makeup masturbat
ing was “bizarre and disgusting”
but not obscene, an appeals court
ruled Tuesday in throwing out the
performer’s pornography convic
tion.
The Nebraska Court of Appeals
dismissed the case against Scott
Harrold, who had been fined
$1,000 for distributing pornogra
phy. His videotaped performance
was aired twice in 1995.
“While the adjectives strange,
weird, graphic, unnecessary, dis
tasteful, indecent and offensive
are all applicable to Harrold’s
videotape, it is not legally ob
scene,” Judge Richard Sievers
wrote.

Measure 64

sustainable for the environment
and protects jobs,” she said.
Bill Wynkoop, Lane County
coordinator for the Healthy For
est Alliance, said Measure 64
would devastate Oregon's econo
my. Wynkoop said he believes
the measure would cost upwards
of 28,000 timber jobs and $1.6
billion in personal income.
“It's poorly written, unjust and
will result in the virtual elimina
tion of timber harvesting in Ore
gon,” Wynkoop said. “The secre
tary of state says our schools will
lose over $33 million a year.
"Try to find a job after gradua
tion in that kind of job market.”
The projected financial impact
statement is based on a report by
the Department of Forestry. The
department used a computer
generated analysis called
ORGANON, which was devel
oped by researchers at the Ore
gon State University College of
Forestry.
But that’s the problem, accord
ing to Richard Bowden, co-direc
tor of Oregonians for Labor Inten
sive Forest Economics, the group
that qualified Measure 64 for the
ballot. Bowden said he believes
there will be no impact on timber
jobs or the economy.
“You have to understand that
the State Department of Forestry,
Oregon State University Depart
ment of Forestry and the big tim
ber companies are all buddies,”
Bowden said. “It’s a fraternity, a
society of foresters. Their growth
model was skewed to unrealisti
cally low numbers, and they did
n’t even replant trees in their
model.”
Some small woodland owners
agree that clearcutting has gone
too far, but so, they say, does
Measure 64.
“Some of these large clearcuts
are wrong,” said Carl DiPaolo, a
private woodland owner who

manages his land in the coastal
range by selective cutting. "If you
want to shut down 120-acre
clearcuts, get out of my way —
I’ll carry the flag.
"But at the same time, I think
it’s chicken to say we want you
to do very selective cuts, then
write the measure so we can’t.”
Other private land owners dis
agree. They say Measure 64 is not
only possible, but also sustain
able and responsible. Like DiPao
lo, Gil Harrison considers his
trees part of his retirement plan,
but he believes Measure 64 will
work.
“If there are specific problems
with small woodland owners
about the number of trees per
acre and size in diameter, the leg
islature will change it,” Harrison
said. “My primary feeling is that
clearcutting has to stop.
“The health of the land and the
wildlife is more important than
making money.”
