Most of Sweden's best hospitals are in big cities on the coast; many of Sweden's population fall sick far inland, beyond high mountains. To get these unfortunates out, Sweden had three ambulance airplanes-until one of them crashed on the Lapland mountains in October...
Indeed, it is obvious that, undergraduate polls and undergraduate jitterbugs notwithstanding, no House should ever engage a "name" orchestra. To pay for such orchestras it is necessary in the first place to raise the price of admission beyond the reach of many members of the House.

Which is the worse is a decision for the gods. Mortals can hope, however, for a meeting some...
