...team of amateur diggers sifted through every bucket of excavated earth, collecting more than 40 cartons of potsherds. As each block was recovered, its precise location was noted on a chart so that archaeologists could later determine exactly where the monument stood and how it fell. Eventually, the young archaeologists found and excavated 58 large blocks, which they then correctly reassembled into a section of the ancient monument on an undisturbed area of the basement floor...

Near his desk hangs a world map on which colored magnets chart the day-by-day movements of Maersk Line ships. Says MØller: "What I do is operate a round-the-world bus service...
...frequencies, acoustical holography could explore for oil and mineral deposits at depths of several miles. Archaeologists could use higher frequencies to search for buried cities.

We have yet to discover how our nation's outstanding place of learning can sit back in brick oblivion and course-book apathy and watch America's Number One Norern Segregationist chart her way to power not seven minutes distant, not five miles off. In this Harvard shows itself no different perhaps than the society of which it is a product. No more and no less than the white bigot of South Boston, or the raw-voiced howling redneck of Alabama...
