Time's awesome archives

While Googling a quote from Aldus Huxley, I came across this article announcing a new painkiller called Soma. I noticed the date was 1959. It seems Time Mag has put their entire archive online dating back to 1929. How totally cool. Their search UI is horribly buggy, but I managed to dredge up this interesting pre-McCarthy tidbit titled Rough on Russians.

My name is Mark Maunder. I've been blogging since around 2003 when I started on Movable Type and ended up on WordPress which is what I use to publish today. With my wife Kerry, I'm the co-founder of Wordfence which protects over 5 million WordPress sites from hackers and is run by a talented team of 36 people. I'm an instrument rated pilot and I fly a Cessna 206 along with a 1964 Cessna 172 in the Pacific Northwest and Colorado. I'm originally from Cape Town, South Africa but live in the US these days. I code in a bunch of languages and am quite excited about our emerging AI overlords and how they're going to be putting us to work for them.
