Philip Weiss article about fanatical 'Clinton crazies' who spend their lives hating the President; crazies include Arkansans like Larry Nichols and Gary Parks, who have developed monstrous view of Clinton as Satan's nephew and see themselves as martyrs; others are conservative and/or conspiratorial reporters like Ambrose Evans-Pritchard of London Sunday Telegraph, who portray Clinton as figurehead for corrupt political organization; others are freelance obsessives, for whom Internet was invented, who see high moral drama in Clinton scandals; prominent here are Hugh H Sprunt and Chris Ruddy, who devote themselves to conspiracy theorists' favorite case, suicide of White House counsel Vincent Foster; influential haters number perhaps 100, but their suspicions percolate to far larger audience; Pat Matrisciana, producer of Christian-right videos, has about 300,000 copies of his Clinton Chronicles video in circulation; photos; diagram on theories about Foster death; fixations seem to reveal less about Clinton than about strain of paranoia abroad in land, and deep distrust of Government and newspapers; Little Rock columnist Gene Lyons notes that, no matter what one thinks about Whitewater case, Clinton does not merit such hatred, except as symbol of what some people fear (L)

INTERNATIONAL 3-15 First Cloning of Mammal Reported By Researchers Researchers in Britain announced that they had successfully cloned an adult mammal for the first time, creating a lamb using the DNA of an adult sheep. In theory, researchers said, the same technique could be used to take a cell from an adult human to create a genetically identical human. That prospect raises thorny ethical and philosophical questions. 1 Mexican Governors' Drug Links The Governor of the Mexican state that borders Arizona is working with a powerful drug trafficker, creating a haven for smugglers who send vast quantities of narcotics into the United States, according to American officials and intelligence.
