...Bear defense played a major role in Harvard's offensive struggles and succeeded in shutting down Harvard in critical situations, applying constant pressure to Wilford and making the play when Wilford threw bad passes...
...McClelland's overall vision was a play within a play, with Faustus as the central recipient of a conspiracy unknown to him. The intrigue not only involves deception but also more subtle gestures that aim at including the audience. I had the honor of sitting next to the bad angel (Austin Guest '03) who ingeniously concealed his presence so that he was embodied only in the spotlight he directed at Faustus. This, combined with the cover art of the program, was just another piece of a conceptually consistent production, even if it seemed a bit cryptic at the time...

That's not much, considering, and it reflects the feeling among many traders that even if Microsoft were found guilty of antitrust, that might not be a bad thing. For instance, if the feds decided to split the company up, whether along product lines or by creating several equally endowed "Baby Microsofts," the combined value of the resultant stock would probably end up higher than the original. Other scenarios aren't so rosy: Bill Gates could be forced to give away...
