"The academics envision a grand world, where Great Men fight Great Wars, periodically inventing Great Things or developing Great Ideas. Instead, the market provides us with incremental processes, which expend enormous piles of resources, in a quest to make better Triscuits.

We take the average price of every model sold by GM, Ford, and Chrysler-say that is $25,000, with taxes, tag, dealer fees and extended warranties included.

Prof. Gates: Ungrateful clod

2009-07-24T10:12:00.001-07:00

Hot-headed Harvard elitist Henry Louis Gates Jr. demonstrated that he doesn't have the temperament to appreciate what happened the night he was arrested. The fact is an officer responded to a call that a house might be in the process of being looted. It takes a lot of training to know how walk into such a situation and still be able to go home after one's police shift and see your wife and
