...company has 10,000 to 20,000 Atlantic supersalmon swimming in endless circles in 136 tanks at three locations in Canada's Maritime provinces. The hope is that these fish will soon be producing eggs for commercial aquaculture not just in Canada but in New Zealand, Chile and the U.S. as well. By turning to the supersalmon, says Elliot Entis, A/F's president, fish farmers could double production without doubling costs because the fish converts food into body mass so much more efficiently than ordinary salmon.

This journey back to Harvard Square, of course, was slightly complicated by this week's weather conditions. It didn't matter where we we had traveled to--be it New Hampshire or New Zealand--to forget our final exams and term papers of yester-semester, getting back to the Square was nothing but a supreme hassle. Cars and buses skidded on the slick roads. Panes circled airport terminals. But for some lucky travelers, the House has slipped up and the cards were on their side...
