Thanks to those who replied to my original article.  I contacted a
visa service in Chicago that verified the result.  You can drive
through East Germany to West Berlin without prior preparation.
It's called a `transit', and you just have to check in at the border
before crossing to purchase a temporary visa.  It works the same
way as the 1 day visa to visit East Berlin from West Berlin.
