[Lawrence (Larry) Chavarie](http://localhost/indiv/larry-chaverie/) of Ottawa sends us his masterly translation of an article from the French publication “Science et Vie” (Science and Life). The review describes the 288 as embodying technical features that stun (“etonne”), being loaded with gadgets (“l’ensemble est truffe d’astuces”), and incorporating “une memoire d’elephant”.
