How does a country on the edge of
war look? Four partiers board a
subway wearing fatigues and gas masks.
Frustration mounts at an anti-war protest
meeting. New York City is theoretically
divided into hot, warm, and cold zones of
chemical contamination. Graduate
journalism students at Columbia
University record their observations
as a series of vignettes for The Local
Planet Weekly "It's the same
approach we used for 'Seven Days at
Ground Zero,'" which won a 2002
Alternative Newsweekly Award for feature
writing, says Planet Editor Tom Grant,
who is also a Columbia graduate.
