...city had to respond to [Harvard's] request, just as we would have had to respond if someone had called up and said 'Look, there are six people in my living room. They don't belong there and I want them out,'" says former City Manager James L. Sullivan...
...been waiting now for four years, hoping that some sanity was coming back, and instead of getting better, it gets worse. When they take over, this is the real test of strength. If they do this, and hold that building, and throw out all the people who belong there, and this goes on and on, and Harvard Yard just becomes an endless battleground for the rest of the year, that's the end of the academic year--that's the end of everything.

But no band that makes music as spooky and splendid as Orange Crush and Hairshirt (two of Green's outstanding cuts) could ever be considered boring, not even potentially. The band's considerable heft and impact reside where they properly belong: in the group's driven, likably demented music, with its passages of unexpected lyricism and its lyrics full of muted menace, in which a sidelong threat can turn, with a twist, into a punch line. The best R.E.M. songs have a kind of intellectual aftershock, and maybe that's what Stipe...
