...Crimson articles and Independent surveys have highlighted the problem and attempted to locate its cause. None of these endeavors, however, have ever compared the social situation at Harvard with a control example—for instance another prestigious school with an equally ambitious and homely student body, albeit with worse dental hygiene. So here is my attempt to shed some scientific light on the dire sexual situation at Harvard...
Fast-forward to Dennis Miller in the post-Sept. 11 era. He has advocated ethnic profiling at airports, contended (albeit half-jokingly) that America should test a nuclear bomb “just to let [the terrorists] know we’re sitting on a nice hold card,” declared his support for military action to topple Saddam Hussein and, in recent months, disclosed that he is a “Bush fan.” What happened...

It took some foresight to predict that jeans would take off in this mainly Muslim, albeit secular, country. Like Coke and rock 'n' roll, jeans arrived with American G.I.s in the '50s. They became a leftist uniform in the '70s, but it wasn't until the '80s with the advent of liberal leader - and fan of all things American - Turgut Ozal that they gained mass acceptance...
