Back to Ann Arbor. In nearly every case the acid test was a personal interview with Kennedy. Shriver had arranged a Georgetown meeting with McNamara during a scouting expedition to Detroit, and McNamara passed the test with highest marks.

The lights failed during a taste-test, the man-in-the-street interview turned up a long-winded Piel's fan who would not let Bert get his motivational research questions in edgewise, the labels got switched during a beer test and Brand X's foam lasted longer.
