BUT CAN HE TYPE?
</hdr><body>
<p>By Janice Castro/Reported by Wendy Cole
</p>
<p> What is an out-of-work former superpower leader to do?
Mikhail Gorbachev is taking a cue from Richard Nixon and picking
up a pen. A very special pen. Gorbachev has signed on as a
journalist with the prestigious Italian daily La Stampa, which
plans to publish 10 of his global ruminations a year. His first
piece, a defense of socialism, was picked up by the New York
Times this week. Gorbachev added a historical flourish as he
signed his new employment contract in Moscow. Pausing
dramatically, he noted that he had once used the same pen to
sign "an important agreement on disarmament."
